Manchester City's signing of teenager Sverre Nypan for £12.5 million demonstrates their future-focused strategy. The departure of the UK from the EU has complicated the transfer process, requiring clubs to navigate a new work permit system. Players like Nypan, who lack extensive international experience, face additional hurdles. Governing Body Endorsements (GBE) now play a crucial role in transfer eligibility, with two paths: autopass through international caps or meeting specific criteria set by the Football Association. Clubs like Manchester United, Tottenham, and Chelsea have utilized these systems to secure new talent effectively.
Since Brexit, clubs in the UK must navigate a complex transfer system, including regulations like Governing Body Endorsements (GBE) and Elite Significant Contributions (ESC), to sign non-British players.
Governing Body Endorsement (GBE) is required for any non-British player to play professionally in the UK, with eligibility determined by international appearances and team rankings.
