as is Reece Cole who did ok for us

I would stay away from Inniss. He was a liability and couldn't use his feet. We don't need another centre back either.

Don't think the age of the loans is relevant - according to EFL all loans are treated as full members of the squad so take up a place in the 22.

That is only the case for the Championship. In Leagues 1 & 2 - any Under 21 Players do not need to be included in the Squad List to be eligible to play in League Matches.

Wages paid to any players under the age of 21 are not covered by the squad cap.

Also, any players not declared as part of their club’s squad list will also see their wages exempt.

The cap does not include financial incentives and bonuses offered for progress in cup competitions or promotion.

Any severance payments paid to players to end their contracts will also not be counted as part of the restricted cap.

...


Should a player leave on loan, the percentage of their wages covered by the loaning club will be deducted from the total going towards the cap.

For example, a player earning £1,000 per week is loaned out for the season. The club he joins agrees to pay 80 per cent of his wages. Therefore, his contribution towards the wage bill at his parent club is reduced to £200 per week.
