Ben Davies?

Do we share a scouting team with Celtic? That’s about the 3rd player this summer that we’re supposedly both in for.
Maybe Hughes shared his wish list with them when Eddie was in talks.
 
I’m not sure there is actually a limit in the EFL

There has to be a limit or else you could get Man City sending 11 players to one team!

How many loan players can a club sign and name on a team sheet?

The EFL’s list of regulations say that a club can name a maximum of five loan players on a team sheet for any individual match.
This will drop down to four players if one of the players named is an emergency loan goalkeeper.
Loans can last for either a full season or half a season.
Recall clauses for a loan’s early termination can only take place in a full season loan and can only be activated during the winter transfer window.
How many players can a club sign on loan from another club?

Clubs in the Championship can sign no more than four players on loan from another club over the course of a season.

But that confirms the opposite. It says you can’t name more than 5 loan players on a team sheet, doesn’t say you can’t have more than that at the club.

You’re right, found this:

How many loan players can a club sign?

According to the EFL's lengthy list of regulations - section 54.4 to be precise - there are no limits on the total number of loan players a club can sign.
 
Decent championship player but no more than that
Liverpool sell 'decent Championship player but no more' Ben Davies for 4m. Interesting how they can justify 'decent championship player and possibly / hopefully more' Nat Phillips requiring 3-4 times more. Seems excessive. We should point to this valuation in any negotiations.
