Blues learn new transfer window changes
FIFA have announced a change to their rules that will allow the Football Association to open the summer transfer window before the end of the 2019/20 season, which could be seen as good news to the Blues.
It was feared that the window wouldn't open until the campaign in England was finished at the very end of July.
However, FIFA have now released a statement which has confirmed two important regulations changes.
In part, the statement read: "In order to avoid any concerns regarding unemployed players, players are permitted to be registered with a maximum of three clubs and are eligible to play in official matches for three clubs during the same season."
