Premier League clubs are set to vote on a potential ban on loan moves between associated clubs in the January transfer window.
The recommendation will ban loan deals being made between clubs who share ownership, such as the network of teams involved in City Football Group, owners of Manchester City, and several others across the globe. The ban is expected to provide a short-term fix and allow time for a longer-term solution to be agreed upon.
There has been growing concern regarding Newcastle United's potential loan deal for central midfielder Ruben Neves, who is currently at Al Hilal. Both teams are currently majority-owned by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF).

Eddie Howe's side are in the market for a central midfielder, following the 10-month suspension of Sandro Tonali due to a breach of Italian betting regulations. There is currently nothing in place to stop such a move happening.
The Athletic report that the vote is set to take place at the next shareholders' meeting and will require a two-thirds majority of at least 14 clubs to vote in favour. The Premier League will endorse the rule change, should it be voted through.
The rule change would stop City agreeing loan deals with their associated clubs, including the likes of New York City FC, Girona FC and Palermo. It is unclear whether United would be able to deal with OGC Nice, should Sir Jim Ratcliffe take a 25 per cent stake in the club, as expected. He would not be a majority shareholder but will have significant influence over matters at Old Trafford.
