Remember back in 2016 when Cardiff signed Kenneth Zohore 'on loan' from KV Kortrijk on the very same day he'd joined them in a £1 million transfer from OB Odense? City were under a transfer embargo for breaching FFP rules and were only allowed to sign players on loan.
At the time, a Football League spokesman said: "From the information made available to the Football League so far, we are satisfied that there isn't any evidence to suggest this transaction is being designed to circumvent the club's Financial Fair Play embargo and it is consistent with how clubs in common ownership operate. Ownership of a number of clubs by a single ownership vehicle is not uncommon in world football, with the success of the Pozzo family, whose clubs include Watford, being the most prominent current example."
