Henry Onyekuru

Such a weird rule , so if we were competing with someone like Sheffield United for a world class Nigerian 17 years old but hadn’t played for his country yet. Sheffield United can bid 12m and get a permit but we would have to pay 25m because our record transfer is siggy ? Stupid rule

That's not the rule as I understand it.

That's not the rule as I understand it.

I didn’t think it was but pretty sure I just read that city couldn’t get a permit for one player and now villa can because they are paying 15m for him and will play more than he would have at city.

You have a better chance of arguing the exceptional talent rule if the fee is big for YOUR club compared to others you bought.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Just sell him.

In talks with Monaco.

Cannot understand why work permit rejected again.

Not enough international football minutes

 

[Nymzee]

Work permits suck, was really looking forward to seeing him play for us. Ah well, good luck at a decent club.

 

[Toffeelover]

Not enough international football minutes

How many are needed?

 

[Nymzee]

Should sell him for £30m to Monaco then buy him back for £30.01m to get a work permit based on fee.

 

[bol-uk]

Really annoying

 

[Connor]

How many are needed?

Nowhere close

Should sell him for £30m to Monaco then buy him back for £30.01m to get a work permit based on fee.

Only going to be a small profit according to the Echo. I reckon abar 11.

[KaiserEFC]

He's also just cost Newcastle £40m, gets a permit on the fee
