Inter Faces Squad Registration Challenges After Major English Signings
Inter Milan‘s extensive recruitment from England has brought the club face-to-face with Serie A’s strict bureaucratic regulations. After signing John Stones, agreeing on a €35 million transfer for Jed Spence, and progressing with the acquisition of Curtis Jones, the Milanese side must carefully navigate the stringent limits on non-EU players.
Following Brexit, British players are now classified as foreign players in Italy, but Inter will still be able to register all their new signings. Stones fills a special quota reserved for players from the United Kingdom, while Spence and Jones occupy the remaining standard non-EU slots. Meanwhile, the return of Aleksandar Stanković from Club Brugge poses no registration issues, as the Serbian midfielder holds a Slovenian passport.
