Optimistic Nut Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Who has the final say on Work Permits? Would be fantastic if they turned around and said you’ve just made £20m, we’re not buying that you need this player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 He seems like the ultimate ‘we tried’ player. Find a player on the French scouting database graded with only a small chance of obtaining a work permit. Get it rejected at 4pm deadline day then release a statement blaming the FA for their failure to sign players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie Broon Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 It's the home office. Unless the rules have changed I can't see how he could get a work permit. He needs to have played a certain percentage of national team games over the past two years; he's not played for the u21s since 2015 and never played for the senior team.

Absolute zero chance he gets a work permit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Played for the U23s in 2015 as well. Normally the stronger the national team the lower the ‘cap’ criteria becomes due to competition for places. But yeah, do think this one may be beyond us. Unless Rafa starts crying at the hearing.

wormy Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Won't the fact he's coming from Barcelona and just played for Nice last season come in to play, too? Not small teams/leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not how it works anymore. It’s still very much part of it. There are different areas which require scores, you can see them via this site - http://www.danielgeey.com/the-foreigner-debate-the-fas-new-work-permit-regulations-explained/ From that I can’t see him getting more than a couple of points. Although he played in France it’s not one of the ‘top three’ leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think people are of the opinion that % of international games is the only factor, though, which is wrong. If it’s gone to a hearing he’s clearly not got the required points.

Dokko Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Whether he comes in or not, this is our last move in the transfer market this summer. Diabolical, even by our low standards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I know Just frustrating to read all the negativity around the deals we have made. Its not those deals, except not securing Kenedy permanently, that are wrong. It's the signings we haven't made so why bring it up in this thread?

TRon Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Got a feeling he will be pretty bad, if we even get him. Then it's a pointless signing and poor judgement on whoever is pushing it through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
