    Signing non English players

    Morning all,

    Just a quick question I am hoping someone can clarify for me, and maybe other foreign fans... Post Brexit, are there any extra hoops that players have to jump through to get signed if they are from the EU?

    Just wondering if this will now take longer, be a harder process whereas before it may have been pretty straightforward? Or have I got it all wrong?

    I think they come under the same exemptions as skilled workers but I will look it up.

    They need an endorsement from the FA the same as non EU players to get a visa.
