Discussions are continuing between the league and the Football Federation on the number of foreign players that would be part of Premier League teams after the Exodus of Great Britain from the European Union.
The football federation was seeking softer resources for non-European players who say 13 foreign players could be on a team of 25 players, writes Independent, translate Peris Periscopi.
Masters said: “Mest to see what solution we will have we are not close to the deal. If you have a quota system that is very different from Europe, you can leave the English teams at a big disadvantage because I think the average number of foreign players makes it more likely to win the League Champions. ”
The teams making up Premier League's sixth ball, Chelsea, Arsenal, Man. City, Man. United, Liverpool and Tottenham have been criticised for the small number of local players with their constantly coming percentage. /Periscope
