Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I cannot find a thread on it.

What is the actual issue with Henry O's visa/ work permit?

Does he have a criminal record or something like that?

If he doesn't, I don't get why he wouldn't be allowed to work in the country. He already has a job which would involve him paying a fortune in Tax.

Anyone know?

{Ed002's Note - He doen't meet the eligibility criteria.}

Agree0 Disagree0

What does that actually mean though? Do you know which Criteria he fails on?

Is there a way round it? Or will he just never be able to play in UK?

{Ed002's Note - The Work Permit requirements:

The player needs a minimum of four points and summary goes something like this:
- The value of the transfer fee (alone) that is to be paid is between the top 75% and 100% of all transfers to Premier League clubs in the previous 2 windows - 3 points
- The value of the transfer fee being paid for the player is between 50% and 75% of all transfers to Premier League clubs in the previous 2 windows - 2 points
- The basic wage (excluding bonuses) being paid to the player by the new club is in the top 25% of the top 30 earners at the club - 3 points
- The basic wage (excluding bonuses) being paid to the player by the new club is between 50% and 75% of all the top 30 earners at the club - 2 points
- Subjectively, the player’s current club is in a recognised "top" league and the player has played in 30% or more of the available domestic league minutes - 1 point
- The player’s existing club has played in the group stages or onwards of the Champions League, Europa League or the Copa Libertadores within the last 12 months and the player has played in 30% or more of the available domestic league minutes - 1 point

My goodness Chris. If paying tax was the only criteria for residency in this country, half of the country would be booted out 😂😂.

Hi ed. Not sure if or when rules changed but did there not used to be something about playing so many times for your country?

{Ed002's Note - At one time that was relevant.}

Thanks Ed, I had no idea it was anything like that. I thought it was standard immigration law stuff that was blocking him.
