Dwight McNeil and Brennan Johnson have swapped clubs [Getty Images]A rarely seen player swap deal has been completed between Premier League clubs.
AdvertisementAdvertisement AdvertisementWhile such player trades between clubs are an unusual transfer window event, they are permitted - but they do have to meet certain rules.
For example, Johnson cost Palace £35m, and his valuation as part of the McNeil deal would affect the Eagles' SCR calculations.
If this is a true swap deal, and the two players are valued at £20m, that would be a £10m loss for Palace.
The Premier League will make the final judgement on whether the deal passes FMV checks.
