The fa along with the home office set the criteria for the work visas for non eu players. With brexit what the fa are saying is that new eu players will have to meet the same criteria as non eu players do now. The fa are willing to scrap the criteria for a work permit for any foreign player if teams drop the amount of non homegrown players in their squad from 17 to 12.
Can't help but feel that like with the 3rd party owenership rule, all we're doing is tying arms behind our backs to fight with the European teams.
