Chelsea’s incoming director of recruitment Paul Winstanley was responsible for one of the breaches of FA agent regulations that saw his current club Brighton fined £366,600 last month.
As revealed by Sportsmail, Brighton were fined for ‘misrepresenting’ transfers on multiple occasions by allowing one agent to work for the club and a player in the same transfer, which is prohibited by the FA.
Winstanley is understood to have accepted responsibility at Brighton for one of the breaches, which the FA accepted was a mistake made in good faith.
