An article I have found from SB Nation yes I know this is a Gooners website but the FA Premier league website rules are down on my device. In answer to you CM I have read the rules have you?
Domestic Loans > Foreign Loans – For similar reasons, domestic loans become much more attractive to teams with promising young players, even if a foreign loan would otherwise be a superior option. For example, Arsenal sign a player at 18, keep him in the academy for two years, then want to send him on loan to get some first-team options. The two options are a team in League One and a team in the Eredivisie – while the level of play is objectively better in Eredivisie, Arsenal may very well choose to loan the player domestically to ensure the player obtains Home Grown Player status.
