Worst scout to ever exist
I don't think it'll have a big impact on the premier league. And I don't think it'll ever be a serious league. Glorified retirement league, and the only players they'll take from the prem aside from 30 something's will be those who fear they'd never get an actual big contract (Mitrovic) so jump at the chance.
It will on the other hand severely hurt leagues like Serie A. Leagues where top players would go to top clubs who at least are in the CL when they couldn't really do it at the top PL clubs anymore. Even those lower clubs within the PL who get the top players at the late stages of their careers sometimes who boost them up.
Generally I think it'll be a wave at the start that shakes things around a bit, but quickly they'll find that people don't care all that much... People will watch, but it won't be that competitive, atmospheres will be a bit shit, nobody will care who wins etc. So before long the players will realize that it's really just glorified retirement so it'll adjust who goes there.
