In case you’re wondering what the B List is, UEFA defines it as “A player may be registered on List B if he is born on, or after, 1 January 1997 and has been eligible to play for the club concerned for any uninterrupted period of two years since his 15th birthday (players aged 16 may be submitted if they have been registered with the club for the previous two years).
“Clubs are entitled to register an unlimited number of players on List B during the season, but the list must be submitted by no later than 24:00 CET the day before a match.”
