A number of Irish kids have signed for European clubs since Brexit - e.g.

Cathal Heffernan - AC Milan (although rumours at the weekend that Newcastle were trying to sign him from Milan)
James Abankwah - Udinese
John Ryan - Sassuolo
Kevin Zafi - Inter
Glory N'zingo - Reims
Killian Cailloce - Caen
That’s because Irish players under 18 aren’t affected by Brexit. As Ireland is still a member of the EU nothing has changed as far as the freedom of movement EU membership gives them.

It’s UK clubs that can no longer sign players under 18 from other EU countries unless that player can obtain a British passport like Evan Ferguson could.

That is the point I was making :thumbsup:

Glory N'zingo -- Reims. Flair name. Champagne skills. Must sign.

I am thinking that we now know the identity of the unnamed trialist who scored for the Albion U-21s at Brentford a couple of weeks ago:-

This lad (Daniel Babb) who played on trial for the U-21s against Brentford back in August, has now moved from UCD in Ireland to Ipswich Town:-
