Fishpaste clearly gets leaked stuff from the club so I might be clutching at straws but I'm taking that as meaning we've chosen our guy and we're waiting on the home office to do their thing
If this is the case then it shouldn't stop them announcing him because it regularly happens with players being signed from abroad.
 
Maric wouldn’t look very impressive on a bureaucratic level (no senior roles etc) but then he was at Leeds not too long ago. Le Bris struggling because he’s now a second division manager?
 
Stole this off OTR , to stop endless rumours, frustration and general anger towards the club, wouldn't they be best leaking this to say The Athletic or something to say agreement in place for X and Y pending work permit?

Announcing players is slightly different as the Home Office have agreed a specific threshold / points system which gives a level of confidence of players being granted a work permit.

Such a system doesn't exist for non-playing staff, so there's no guarantee of success.
 
Under tier 2, the person can stay in the UK for three years with a possible extension for another two years.

This would rule out Cifuentes as his would still be valid. It would also rule out Maric as his would also still be valid (until 2025).

I could be totally wrong about all this like, and you might need to re-apply if you've moved teams.
You need to reapply to change your permit if you move employers.

You'd think this is when stuff will start to leak with other parties and agencies involved, surely this is how journalists pick these things up, work permit applications

Where’s the fun in that? Few more days of all of us bashing our heads off the wall won’t do any harm
