Winter transfer window: PL clubs vote against the ban on loans between associated clubs

This is news that delights the owners of Newcastle in particular. The Premier League voted this Tuesday in London against the ban on loan agreements between clubs with the same owners during the next winter transfer window. To translate, this means that the Magpies are allowed to bring in Ruben Neves on loan from Al-Hilal, with the PIF owning both teams, in addition to Al-Nassr, Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad.

Some see this as an unfair advantage over the competition. Premier League clubs even wanted to ban it. In fact, they outnumbered their opponents. 13 voted in favor of the ban for 7 votes against the ban, but the regulations require obtaining two thirds of the votes cast, that is to say 14 ballots out of the 20. It was close very little.
