This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Don't relegate English Football to a lower division in Europe.
If Brexit actually happens, the Government must issue assurances that the standard, quantity & quality of players available to teams to sign won't be affected by stopping FOM. If the Premier League cannot recruit the best players from Europe our ability to compete at the top level will be reduced
More details
For our clubs to compete in Europe at the top level we need to be able to sign the best players from the EU. The Governments bad deal and fixation on FOM cannot be allowed to stop our clubs being competitive. We need assurances that the same number and quality of players will be available and no Government policy will affect this.

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
