Everton and Liverpool could be handed a transfer boost should plans floated by the Football Association come to fruition.
Since the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union in January 2020, football transfers have been impacted due to the introduction of the FA’s Governing Body Endorsement (GBE), a points-based system where the eligibility of players and their ability to get a work visa is determined by a number of factors such as the standard of league and club they are arriving from, appearances in certain competitions and international honours at both senior and junior level.
English clubs have been at a disadvantage when compared to their European counterparts when it comes to sourcing talent from across the globe that didn’t meet the GBE requirements.
