This tool provides real-time information about the status of individual players in relation to the UK’s new points-based immigration system. The GBE Calculator is not only for British clubs looking to make signings, but also foreign clubs assessing the market for their players. Clubs, agents and players can use the tool to get an indication of whether a deal is worth pursuing.
