Strict foreign quota

Oliech won’t be signed by the South African club after all. Free State Stars’ coach Luc Eymael told Nairobi News that Oliech’s potential transfer had been hindered by the strict foreign quota in South Africa Premier Soccer League.

The foreign quota rule in South Africa Premier Soccer League allows clubs to register a maximum seven foreign players in their squad.

“I lacked an extra spot for foreigners and that is the reason we did not sign a foreign striker,” said Luc Eymael.
