foreign players limit

[adnan2850]

what is the limit to foreign players on a club in the English Premiership?

what about in the other leagues?

 

[houston3721]

in EPL : is it not more than 3 non-EU players in a game?

 

[Voltaic Borusse]

5 in German Bundesliga
3 in Spanish La Liga

With Foreign i assume you mean Non-EU... if thats the case,

Serie A -

Not more than 3 on the pitch at a time and not more than 5 in the squad.

Real Madrid are finding loopholes in this, Ronaldo and Roberto Carlos are getting Spanish passports so they'll be able to sign some new non-EU players. Also, I don't think Ronaldo and R. Carlos are the only players doing it at RM.

Lots of teams do that, that's why Arsenal and Man Utd have feeders in belgium, Belgium has faster citizenship than England.

 

[SuRFy]

yup

 

[Thelonious]

Is there a limit in England though , the players need to get work permits which is why they go to Belgium to get Eu passports.

It's 5 non Europe foreigners in Germany.

Its a stupid rule, no doubt someone will find loopholes faster than RVN flouting a offside rulz.

how annoying is the rule sayin you need 2 under 21 players in your squad in the SPL? actually its not really that annoying to be honest....its only annoying on champ man

EPL clubs can have an unlimited number of non-eu players, but they have to be granted a work permit.

Stupidest rule in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PPKL are so not multicultural these days wth?????

 

[Punkt]

in Portugal is a max of 4 in the lineup and 6 in the squad.

and the foreigners limitations rules exist to protect the young players.

 

[Hendrik]

They should definitely limit the number of foreign players (EU and non-EU, doesn't matter) to 5 at max.

 

[AberdeenFC]

aberdeen only have like 2 foriegners, pasquinelli from argentina and heikkinen from finland. though we have 2 english fudds in preecey and whelan. so i wouldnt mind! rangers & celtic would!!

sounds good to me!

true.
i know juve has like 10 foreigners, but if we limit this number, that would mean a tremendous boost for young players of each country hence a better national team imo

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

yup, on one point you do boost up your young players, and have better national teams...but its not fair to others player (lets say from france who want to play in spain) they dont get the chance because they dont have any room for them???....good for real madrid that ronni and mr. carlos are becoming citizens

 

[claupastore]

who cares about where a foreigner wants to play. if each of the stars that are concentrated on serie A EPL and la liga stay in their countries then their leagues could be just a tad better

it's ilegal limitate EU players from play in EU countries leagues because a EU citizen can't be considered as a foreigner in a EU country. The leagues can only limitate non-EU players.
