Only English players in PL

[EllaHeysers]

Is it possible that every team in the Premier League only has English players from the start and through the whole career?

Yes.

You would have to do several things.

First ensure that no English competitions allows for foreign players. This can be done in advanced rules. Next is to change the transfer preferences where English teams will not transfer players from other nations (this is under Nation England in the transfer preferences). Then you would have to move out the foreign players, but you could just wait untill they leave on their own. One change important to make is to set the years to set gain nationality to a higher value, because otherwise a lot of non-English will take on the English nationality as well.

Can you be more specific on what to do in the advanced rules to make sure no English competitions allow foreign players?  Thanks!

First you create the advanced rules for England. I assuming you know how to access those.

Then you go to the fixture rules

For each competition in the fixture rules list you add two lines:
Foreign Players in Match Squad
Foreign Players in Squad
You might wonder why both. That's because if you do only the Match Squad one, the AI will still buy foreign players and PL teams can use those in Europe. If you only do the Foreign players in Squad, it seems the rule sometimes is ignored (noticed this when testing in Iron Curtain FM20.
