Isnt it just a ban on signing new players?  Can sell anyone you want.

And we all know they'll be a queue to buy our outstanding talent

Let's be honest.  A transfer ban would stop us from buying turd. 

And we have brought many many of them

I can just see it now. Rudkin will finally play a blinder and shift all the players out and only then find out we’re under an embargo and can’t sign anyone.

What basis would the EFL have for a transfer ban? We have been compliant with PSR for 2 years and will likely be fine for this financial year given we are not spending and the worst year of losses comes off our cycle.

I don't think that's correct, we were compliant last season, the season before (22/23) we breached, this season we've no idea.

Transfer ban is incoming only, ultimately though if someone is under contract, and assuming no clause has been triggered, then the club can force them to stay.

Man City obviously know they are being hit with a transfer ban hence the Haaland 9 year deal and bringing lots in in Jan.

Us on the other hand will do jack sh*t with our clowns in charge.

I can see an embargo next year in EFL and up to 20 points deduction.

Reading got it so cant see why we wont

If it looked like immediate promotion was unlikely and relegation a possibility, the thought of being away from the PL and full PL salary for 2-3 years minimum may make some look to move on. However with a still decent wage and comfortable facilities plus the idea of moving up a peg to becoming an integral player enough of the squad would prefer that to struggling to find better elsewhere. The likes of Nelson, Choudhury and MacAteer would see themselves as more likely to be more involved and whilst everyone would recognise how tough it’s going to be, enough would stay due to comfort or lack of matching offers from elsewhere.

Reading had to submit a business plan as they failed PSR, they then continued to fail the business plan and had various HMRC summons, couldn't pay their players etc so they continued to get points deductions as part of the agreed upon business plan. Can people stop with the ignorant scaremongering, this is not the same situation.

Good luck with that

During a Transfer Window

Clubs can ‘staff up’, so they have 23 players of Professional Standing within their squad.

Clubs are able to ‘staff up’ to ensure the integrity of the competitions remain and so that Clubs are able to fulfil their fixtures.

• Clubs are only permitted to ‘staff up’ by signing players on loan or players not registered with another Club
  • Clubs cannot pay fees to acquire loan players and cannot pay additional wages on top of the salary the player receives at their parent Club
• Clubs ‘staffing up’ may only register players until the end of the current Season, whilst loan transfers can only be for half a season
• Budget restrictions apply dependent upon the divisional status of the Club under embargo

Outside of a Transfer Window

• Outside of a transfer window, Clubs can only register Out of Registration players (free agents) and Clubs can only register Out of Registration players if they have less than 16 players of Professional Standing (2x Goalkeepers, 14x Outfield Players)
• In line with Regulation 57, Clubs can register an Emergency Goalkeeper Loan if they don’t have any Professional Goalkeepers available due to injuries, suspensions or international call-ups.

Professional Goalkeeper =  a goalkeeper (excluding any Goalkeeper registered as a Non-Contract Player) who has been named in the starting eleven on five or more occasions by:

• any Club (or Premier League club) in any matches in the relevant league or first team cup competitions (other than the EFL Trophy); and/or
• any other club in a professional league in that club’s home association (by way of example, any division of the Scottish Professional Football League, or Serie A, B or C).

Professional Standing = is any Player who has made one first team appearance (including as a sub) for any Club in any first team competition (EFL Trophy appearances do not count).
