Related Topics: Regulation, BBC Sport, FIFA

FIFA will limit the amount of players football clubs are permitted to loan out per season, it's been announced, while football's governing body is also set to reintroduce the regulation of agents in the sport.

BBC Sport reported FIFA had proposed to limit clubs to six loans per season, although there still has to be an agreement reached between league, club and player representatives as well. To put that figure into context, Premier League titans Chelsea have 40 players farmed out this term.

The report also mentioned we can expect to see the regulation of football agents back in effect as soon as summer 2019.
