Basically to lower the cap but will add 1 marquee player who is not included in it.

An earlier plan that had the backing of Toulon's Boudjellal, would have allowed players who came up through a club's academy for an unspecified number of years to be excluded from the cap. But it was discarded in favour of the marquee player system, L'Equipe said.

Sums up the French mentality that.
The academy players not included for X years makes more sense and is one I wish would happen here.
