I've read some earlier threads on home-grown players and think I have a decent idea (sign them before they're 18, and they have to be with your club for 3 years before getting club-grown status). I also understand that you can loan players out and still get time for home-grown status if you loan another player out, even abroad (ie. I'm playing with Arsenal and if I loaned a player to Valencia I'd still get a year towards home-grown status).
Just one question though - if I loan a player out for 3 years from the age of 17, will he count as home-grown in respect to registering him for the Premier League, or would he also get club-grown status when I registered him for the Champions' League (so he would count as one of my required four)?
Thanks for your time!
