No blocking of loans between related parties
Premier League clubs have voted today on a move to block loan signings from clubs with the same ownership but it wasn’t passed. Like all votes it needed 14 clubs to vote in favour of the motion but just 13 voted in favour.
It will now allow Newcastle to bring in loan players from the Saudi clubs they own in January.

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
Is this the way round FFP? Pump money (investment of course)! into Saudi Club, buy player for £150m paying £1m a week…….then loan him to the PL club with sod all loan fee and just a share of the wages? Surely can’t be that simple (unlike me) - or is FFP based on the Group position ie all entities “related”?.

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
Actually it is exactly that - which is why the Premier League Executive suggested a temporary ban - it forms part of the related party - fair value conversation that includes sponsorships, which is why Chelsea had a proposed sponsor refused at the start of the season (didn't help it was a rival to a Premier League broadcast partner), which Necastles was passed because of the values of the respective dealsJimmymaccer wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 5:08 pmIs this the way round FFP?

Falling out of love with football, it's getting further and further away from why I got into the game.

It could easily be the teams I listed - Arsenal Manchester United, Spurs, Chelsea and to a lesser extent Liverpool (their is a limited link to AC Milan) have no real stake in the game - though they may want to find ways of hindering Newcastle's changes of Champions League qualification for next seasonRammyClaret61 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 5:34 pmI’m guessing the 7 who voted against are the so called big 6 plus Newcastle?

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
It was inevitable that other clubs benefitting from, or planning to benefit from, these arrangements would put their own interests ahead of the interest of the sport in this country. Just as unfortunately it's inevitable that fans do time after time. It's a path that's heading one way and I don't really see any way out of it.
Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
Wasn’t this something we were hoping to do by buying another club? Whoops just seen an earlier comment.

I’d guess Brighton and Forest were more likely to vote against banning it than Man United. Those two clubs have an owner who owns more than one club.

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
The key to remember here is that the proposal was only for a temporary ban (just the January window) until the framework for all the related party issues is defined and agreed on - some may just prefer to wait for that

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
Hi CP, RV has already posted the 7 clubs, possibly from same report I've seen in The Times. Martyn Ziegler's report is more extensive than just naming the seven clubs.Chester Perry wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 7:21 pmThe key to remember here is that the proposal was only for a temporary ban (just the January window) until the framework for all the related party issues is defined and agreed on - some may just prefer to wait for that
Seven clubs that blocked ban on signing players from sister sides
Newcastle, Sheffield United, Man City, Chelsea, Everton, Wolves and Nottingham Forest are said to have voted against the proposed Premier League rule change
Martyn Ziegler, Chief Sports Reporter Tuesday November 21 2023, 7.00pm, The Times
A proposed ban on Premier League sides signing players from related clubs in the January transfer window — which would have blocked Newcastle United signing players on loan from the Saudi Pro League — has been defeated by a single vote.
Saudi-owned Sheffield United and Abu Dhabi-owned Manchester City were among seven clubs who opposed the temporary ban, while 13 voted in favour at the Premier League meeting in London. At least 14 of the 20 top-flight clubs needed to back the proposal to pass the rule change.
Sources said the seven clubs that voted against the ban were: Newcastle, Sheffield United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Everton, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Nottingham Forest. Most of those clubs are linked to multi-club ownership models so the defeat of the proposal means they can take players from partner clubs on loan.
A separate vote on tougher rules on commercial deals between associated parties was also defeated.
One club chief said there was particular anger among some of the 13 clubs in favour of the ban that Sheffield United had voted against it. Their owner is the Saudi prince Abdullah bin Musaid Al Saud.
The proposed loan ban had been put forward after the move in the summer by the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF), which owns Newcastle, to buy four clubs in the Saudi Pro League.
There has been speculation that Newcastle could move for Rúben Neves to replace Sandro Tonali after the Italy midfielder was banned for ten months for breaching betting rules. Sources close to the club insist there was no intention of signing Neves, who plays for Al-Hilal, one of the clubs owned by the PIF.
There has been growing concern that multi-club ownership and associated party deals are providing some clubs with an unfair advantage. In December 2021 it was agreed that every associated party transaction — including transfers of players — involving Premier League clubs over the value of £1million a year would be checked to ensure it was of fair market value.
The rules now say that if the Premier League’s board has reasonable grounds to suspect “that it is an associated-party deal or ‘otherwise than at arm’s length’ ” then an independent firm will determine whether it is of fair market value or has been artificially inflated.
The regulations also cover any extra payments from associated parties to a club’s senior officials, managers or players earning more than £1 million a year.
Each club have had to provide financial details of all sponsorship deals they have done since 2016 to form a “databank” that will be used to determine fair market value.

Could the Saudi clubs not just sell the player to Newcastle on a free transfer and then transfer the player back in the summer?

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties

I think there is a serious danger that within the next 10-20 years global professional football will cease to exist outside of a small number of international megabrands. Especially as the money men the world over seem to want this to happen.

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
If we voted that way, for a rule in place for January, does this suggest we are near to some sort of deal, or more of a strategic vote, thinking longer term?

Think they’re will always be some sort of professional football outside of that potential ‘bubble’, it’ll just be quite far removed from what we’ve been used to. Probably more like a league one/two type.
As for the money men- they care not one jot about what sport actually is - it’s just a business to them. Capitalism at its very worse.

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
the report in the Telegraph shows that while Burnley voted to block the related party player loans (multi-club) approach but switched sides on the related party commercial deals - nothing unusual in the fact that they voted in self interest

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
Makes me wonder if our club have done a deal with one of the rebels if that is allowed, e.g. “you vote our way and we will loan or sell you these players in January”.
Because it sounds like the club have little to gain from it otherwise in the short term.

Re: No blocking of loans between related parties
It would be pointless for us to vote to ban inter club loans while we have been actively trying to buy another club.
