Ferguson: Man Utd working to EEC laws in youth recruitment

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson insists their dealings for foreign academy players are well within the laws.

"The EEC allows players to move," said Ferguson. "You can't stop a boy, once he has left school, moving from his country. So, that's not an issue.

"You can't take a boy from Brazil until he's 18, unless he has a European passport. We know that. We are well within the regulations."
