Sorry for the long post, but I feel like there is still some confusion over the loan rules for the premier League.


Under the rules in the Premier League Handbook 2022/ 23, there are restrictions on how many players Premier League clubs can loan from other Premier League/ English clubs.

They are:

- Premier League clubs may not register more than two players on loan at any one time.
- The maximum number of loans registrable in the same season is four, and, under no circumstances, shall more than one be from the same club at any one time.
- Premier League clubs cannot loan to another Premier League club a player they have acquired in the same transfer window.
- A Premier League club may loan not more than one of its goalkeepers to another Premier League club.

With the exception of Welsh clubs competing in the competitions listed under Rule V.6.2, loans from a club in membership of another National Association do not count towards the above quotas.


Coady counts as one of our two permitted English club loans; and Vinagre is loaned from a club with membership in another National Association.

We should still be able to take Broja on loan from Chelsea and also Guirassy from Rennes before the end of the window.

I'm fairly sure this is correct, but I know there are differing opinions on here from reading the posts.

Brighton in the first line after you say “they are” it clearly states:

Premier League clubs may not register more than two players on loan at any one time.

So no idea why you think we can loan anyone else ?.

Eight international loans and two domestic loans so yes we can loan one more from the prem but not from Wolves.

GD, the two key parts of the text are:

1. there are restrictions on how many players Premier League clubs can loan from other Premier League/ English clubs

2. loans from a club in membership of another National Association do not count towards the above quotas.

We can still loan players - one from an English club (not Wolves) and more from abroad.

Nope - only 2 loans at any one time.

We could loan another 2 players in the next window if we were to cut short Vinagre and coady loans.

Smit - what you suggest would mean you could pretty much have a whole team of loan players which is quite far fetched.

Because they are the loan rules between Premier league clubs.

Helps if you read the first part of his post ?.

The ed has stated and is correct. We can only have 2 loans at any stage of the season at once. So talk of another loan isn't going to happen unless coady or vinagre are made permanent which also can't see happening within a week. Is bit confusing and poor journalism stating we are in for a loan to buy when we are already at limit.

Reading that I agree with Ginger Dan.
You can have 4 players in a season but you would have to make one of your first 2 loan signings permanent before you could sign another player on loan, and you can do that a maximum of 4 times, but I have already been wrong once today alone lol.
Could there be an exception to an emergency loan? Although that would have surely had to be done last week when Rondon was suspended.

There are different rules across the different leagues.

The premier league and the efl have different numbers allowed.

However everything I’ve read regarding premier league is:

Premier League rules currently state that clubs cannot sign more than 4 loan players per season and only 2 can be registered at any one time.
However there is no limit on how many players can be loaned out by a club.

Now I’m happy to be wrong as would mean we could still get another 2 loans in which would only benefit us - however I don’t think I am based on everything I’ve read including ed002 responses previously.

I copied the rules direct from the Premier League website - it's pretty clear. The restriction of two at any one time only applies to loans from English clubs. Players from clubs registered in different National Associations do not count.

I posted this in order to clear up the confusion. I've seen the opinions on other posts - they are not correct; we can still loan players.

The rules were suppose to change this season (not sure if they did or have)
It was a change to limit loans in and out to stop clubs stockpiling players.
Clubs could loan more players in but it was capped as was loaning players out.
Teams like Chelsea had loads out on loan and the changes were to prevent these teams stockpiling talent.
Thinking about it, as Chelsea haven't sold a load of their loan players maybe the rules didn't change.

Toffee t. v are talking we may get or hope broja or che Evans on loan so I'm lost on this . Forget the players but talk of another loan baffles me any way.

Well that had opened a lively discussion! I would also happily be wrong as it can only benefit Everton.

Ed002 I know you’ve posted the rules before but are you able to clarify once and for all of now we’ve loaned 2 players that’s all we can loan for this window?
Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - I have answered this.}

WE can not loan another player right now. the original post makes that quite clear when it says 'Premier League clubs may not register more than two players on loan at any one time. '

We are a premier league club and we may not register more than 2 players on loan at any one time. We have registered 2 players in Vinagre and Coady. That is it. I don't understand why people are getting confused and misreading this as just referring to premier league clubs between each other.

i was also confused at first but read it again : Under the rules in the Premier League Handbook 2022/ 23, there are restrictions on how many players Premier League clubs can loan from other Premier League/ English clubs

The last line states those rules are between Premier clubs. International loans don't count towards those rules, so must have other limits.

I heard 4 loans in total and only 2 from same league, so would allow us to loan 2 more players but only 1 from Premier league.

I remember other teams having plenty of Loan players over past few seasons.

Well, I tried.

I expect we'll find out one way or another before the end of the month. We certainly can't afford to buy the players we need.

If we could loan more than 2 players, why didn’t we get two more loans in Jan?

I’m firmly in the 2 loans at anyone time. Maximum of 4 over the season. To do a third or fourth loan you have to sign or return the first two.

It’s annoying to hear rags talking about us getting another loan player - I’ve stopped relying on the majority of paper talk as it often just to sell their papers or get traffic on their website.

BR2022-23 we may not have had the finances to get two more loans in in Jan loans can be as expensive as transfers with monthly payments and wages.

All outlets reporting that we are looking at loans still now……. that suggests to me that we CAN in fact loan more players or that the outlets are clearly clueless.
Let’s flip a coin hey!

‘Outlets clueless’ gets my vote. There is always a clear bias from the rags in the need to make money - unless an Ed reports it, I find it hard to take most tumours seriously. How many times have we signed someone we have considered out of the blue as the rags had no idea?

2 loans at a time, 4 over a season. Allows for short loans / emergencies but need to cancel one of the first two.


22.) 11 Aug 2022

We CAN loan more players. like Norwich had 4 season-long loans last season, 2 domestic and 2 foreign based. Don't get why there is confusion, ed was just wrong for once. OP is correct.

Brighton is right about the rules, bring in the on loan striker.
