Championship sides may need to field quota of loan players under radical new plans

The proposals were discussed at a top flight shareholders meeting in London and the aim of such a move would be to hasten the development of young British players as part of a wider plan that would restructure the finances within the top levels of English football.

The changes, which would see alterations to the parachute payments system, are also said to include investing in infrastructure at grounds of clubs in the third and fourth tier.
