Bristol City have submitted their squad list to the EFL which emphasises just how much space Nigel Pearson has for manoeuvre in the transfer market but also shows the number of hugely talented youngsters the manager has at his disposal.
Clubs must submit their final registered squad at the end of every transfer window with requirements of a maximum quota of 25 players while at least eight of those must be home grown. There is an exception for Under-21 players who do not need to be registered unless they are with the club on loan.
On Monday, the EFL published those lists and it showed City registering just 19 players in total. Of those, 14 are home grown. The Robins have a huge number of contracted Under-21 players with 30 named.
