But I dont think United bought him so long ago... really 5 years?

In real life, China dont let Dong Fangzhuo to have a second nationality, he has to give up his nationality "Chinese" if he wants the Belgium one.Aarfy Aardvark said:So I take it, its best to get a polish feeder club, as this will take minimal time for them to get naturalised into a EU citizen.
Oh and Japan and South Korea have really daft naturalisation laws. You can't become a dual national after 22 years of age. Its either one of the other. Same with Ukraine. I think the problem is, this little caveat is quite detrimental to the game and you can't really reflect it whilst playing. Hence the need for a 100 years of solitude (to quote the name of the novel by Garbriel Garcia Marquez)
However I think if a Korean or Japanese player played in England, rather then the other way around - they would be able to have dual-nationality on the basis of the laws in that country. I also believe Spain revoked the law only recently which has helped their league and national team a lot.
Also, can someone tell me if Bulgarian and Romanian players are classed as EU after Jan 2007?

But in the game, Dong already had Belgium as his 2nd nationality.
