Summer Mercato 2016

[ACMILAN1983]

Dev, weren't the rules changed so that players can play in the CL qualifications, and than if transferred still be able to play in the group stages for their new club? I think if you play in the play off, you can't do it....but if it's just the qualifications (which is what it is on Tuesday, Q2) than I think you are able to still appear in the CL for another team.

Not 100% sure about this but I swear I remember reading something like this...


Edit: As a rule, a player may not play in a UEFA club competition (UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League, excluding UEFA Super Cup) for more than one club in the course of the same season. However, a player can play for one club in the first, second and third qualifying round, and/or the play-offs, of the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League, and then represent another club from the group stage of either competition.

Thanks nefremo. I thought that might have been the case, looked it up and didn't check properly lol so made the assumption.

Even with that point gone, I still think we're favoured in this deal, there's just a lot pointing towards him joining Milan. I still think on Tuesday/Wednesday we'll have a clearer picture. That was a big point for me though, kind of a shame the rule was changed given this situation
