Question about Premier League foreign Under-21 player restrictions

[bluehefner]

So i'm Man Utd, i've signed 4/6 under-21 foreign players this season with a plans for a 5th before the window shuts.

In January i have 2 coming in, obviously that takes me over my limit.

Question, how does the game decide which of the two players gets cancelled?

One of them is really good, the other i could do without.

[bluehefner]

Any ideas? Is it random, is the one i agreed to sign first the one that goes through?

If it works the same way as attempting to sign staff members when it would take you over the limit, it should process the first deal agreed and cancel the second. It's a good question, will see if I can find the right person to give you a proper answer.
