Fifa have voted in favour of the 'six-plus-five' rule which would place restrictions on foreign players. The president of football's world governing body, Sepp Blatter, hopes to see the initiative implemented by the 2012/13 season.

The ruling would limit the number of overseas players any one team can field in their starting XI to just five.

With this ruling African players will find it very difficult to play in any team in Europe thereby adversely affecting the quality of our national teams. Chei! This man sef.

then it means you should improve the quality of your own league!!!!!!!!!!!

well said justkunmi

Improving the quality of our own league would not tempt the likes of martins and mikel from their current clubs.

Which Nigerian Club would pay their salaries?

Improve wetin?

Na beans?

Una naija can sabi misyarn. If you put all the clubs for naija togerther, them worth 21million pounds/euros? this na just the sign on fee for one player for yonder. Oboy league or no league, all our boys wan go abroad. even if na corinthians for brazil or northhampton of jand or even dannish league sef, that na every young footballer dream for naija.

Do you think Kanu would be Kanu today if he were to be playing for Wiki tourists or Enyimba? Abeg free matter jare.

Blatter don kill us.

ONLY ALLAH CAN HELP US.WHAT CAN WE DO?THEY ARE ALREADY AHEAD.
MAY ALLAH HELP US (AMEN)

I think sepp blater and his supporters are just jealous of the EPL, its taking too much shine away from the main association!
The publicity and income generated is more than he can ever get

it wont see the light of day, its against EU labour laws anyway
