The days of Premier League clubs loaning out significant numbers of players is nearing the end after FIFA confirmed wholesale changes to the transfer system will be implemented in the summer.
From 1 July there will be a cap placed on the number of players over the age of 21 who can be sent out on loan by players, with the number allowed reducing to six by the summer of 2024.
There will be no limit imposed on the number of young players permitted to make temporary moves, although there will be caps placed on the length of deals with the shortest loan being the interval between two registration periods and the maximum of one year.
