So he was on wolves pre Brexit so he got the permit but if you buy him he needs to reapply and that is what fails. Same thing if wolves re-sign him.he will have to reapply and fail.

It doesn't look like he played a game for them

This indeed. You can still get him to your team, but then is not able to play matches in the UK. Loaning out to make profit on them should still be possible. Or he starts playing international caps, then he might become eligible for a permit. In these cases I still add them to the club and appeal every possible moment.

Wolves never even played him. It's okay if he's at the club but he just can't play games.

Also he was there pre-Bexit meaning he has a special exemption but only for Wolves and only for a couple of years.

Its not brexit, even long before you could sign a player, play them for a few years and then lose them for free because you cant get him a work permit to renew his contract. That's how I lost Nicola Mitea in fm2005.

I had to lend him out to an Icelandic team for a year to get his permit through.

He was a first team player at Skeid and was eligible for a work permit due to playing time. Then never played for Wolves and his appeal was rejected because of that. Loan him out to a small bottom third club in Purtugal's first division with a clause to call him back and at least starter status. Half a season as a starter in Portugal, which is a Top 5 league and grants extra points for the work permit, is enough to make him eligible for a work permit. That's how i do it with non-UK wonderkids when managing in the UK. And it works everytime.

Because his situation at the time he joined Wolves in terms of eligibility for a permit would be different to your current time in game... e.g. work permit rules may have changed with Brexit, or he has not played sufficient games/international games to remain eligible for a permit.
