Premier League confirm new financial system for 2024/25 season

The Blues were handed a record-breaking 10-point deduction in November 2023 after exceeding the permitted £105million for the 2021/22 season which amounted to £124.5million.




The sanction was later reduced to six points but the Blues were found to be in further breach of the PSR rules by £16.6million for the three-year period to 2022/23. The independent panel deduced Everton two points – taking the total to eight points.
