Everton Faces Crucial Hearings Over PSR Breaches, Spurs Could Benefit from Rule Enforcement
Premier League clubs consider aligning with UEFA's 'squad cost ratio' system as part of potential changes to PSR rules.
- Everton faces the prospect of two defining hearings for potential breaches of the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability rules (PSR) in the 2022-23 season, which could significantly impact their season and future.
- Everton argues against 'double jeopardy', claiming they are being punished twice for breaches in overlapping periods. They believe this results from a deficiency in the Premier League’s rules.
- Tottenham Hotspur, who have consistently played within the rules, may benefit from the enforcement of PSR rules, as they have invested heavily in sustainable revenue generation, such as their new stadium.
- The Premier League's PSR rules permit clubs to lose a maximum of £105million ($133m) over three seasons, with certain costs such as infrastructure and community work being deductible.
- Richard Masters, the Premier League’s chief executive, revealed that clubs are considering changes to the PSR rules, potentially aligning more with UEFA's new 'squad cost ratio' system.
