Everton FC today released an official statement stating that the club has appealed the decision of an independent Commission to impose a 10-point deduction on the club, after its admission of a breach of the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules.
“Everton Football Club has today lodged with the Chair of the Premier League’s Judicial Panel its appeal of the decision by a Premier League Commission to impose a 10-point deduction on the Club. An Appeal Board will now be appointed to hear the case.”
A fortnight ago, An independent Commission inflicted Everton with an immediate deduction of 10 points after breaching the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSRs).
Earlier this year, the Premier League launched a complaint against Everton and referred the case to an independent Commission earlier this year. During court proceedings, Everton admitted to breaching PSRs for the period ending Season 2021/22, but the extent of the breach remained in dispute.
