Non-homegrown: 2 free15 / 17
Homegrown: fills the quota8
Under-21: uncounted · unlimited4

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: ceiling −427 / 21
Locally-trained: association capped at 44 / 8
Club-trained: min 40
Goalkeepers: min 2 on A · 3 total3 + 0
List B youth: unlimited0
Cup-tied: listable, not playable here0

A separate 25-man document from the Premier League list, counted independently with a different homegrown definition. Of the 25, eight places are reserved for locally-trained players — at least four club-trained (this club, ages 15–21) and at most four association-trained (other clubs, same association). Here 0 club-trained + 4 usable association-trained fill 4 of the eight reserved places, so the ceiling falls to 21 — the shortfall costs "free" slots, never homegrown ones.

UEFA Regs §10 — List A max 25, reduced by the locally-trained shortfall

Squad-cost ratio: £0m of £0m—
PL green: 85%
PL red: 115%
UEFA ceiling: 70%
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; and because the club is in UEFA competition it is also measured against UEFA's stricter permanent 70% ceiling, where it is clear.

PL Squad Cost Rules — squad cost is measured against revenue plus player-sale profit

Pending GBE: 0
Exceptions Panel: 10–14 pts0
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 — points-based endorsement

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.
