Homegrown: fills the quota8
Under-21: uncounted · unlimited0

A Home Grown Player is one registered with any FA/FAW-affiliated club for three seasons (or 36 months) before the end of the season he turns 21 — a registration-history test, not a nationality test. No amount of spending buys a homegrown slot; only time in the English/Welsh system does. With 8 homegrown the squad can fill all 25.

PL Handbook §2 — max 25 senior, of which ≤17 non-homegrown

List A is submitted per UEFA competition entered. This club holds no UEFA entry this season, so the 8/4/4 locally-trained quota, the goalkeeper minimums and the 25-man ceiling have nothing to attach to.

UEFA Regs §10 — squad lists are submitted per competition entered

Squad-cost ratio: £0m of £0m—
PL green: 85%
PL red: 115%
PSR (legacy): limit £105m · prior periods only£0m

From 2026/27 the Squad Cost Ratio is the binding domestic test — PSR is retired, kept only to close prior-period cases. On-pitch spend of £0m (wages, transfer amortisation and agent fees) against £0m of revenue plus player-sale profit is not a measurable ratio. With no squad cost there is nothing to cover.

Below pass mark: Route B passes at 150

Since Brexit every overseas player, EU nationals included, needs a Governing Body Endorsement from the FA before the Home Office issues a visa — auto-pass on competitive caps, or 15 points from league and continental minutes. A signing without one occupies interest but no squad slot until endorsed.

FA GBE §7 — every overseas player needs an endorsement before registration

Active bans: 0
Transfer embargo: None

A suspended player stays registered and keeps his place in the 25 — a ban stops him playing but does not de-register him, and lists are locked between windows. State-level sanctions can go further: the 2022 Abramovich licence froze Chelsea's transfers entirely for ~11 weeks, overriding every open slot until the club was sold.
