Everton Deducted Two More Points for PSR Breach, Drop to 16th Place – Watch Next Five Games Live on Sky Sports
In a shocking turn of events, Everton has been hit with another blow as they have been deducted a further two points for breaching the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR). This latest deduction sees Everton drop to 16th place in the Premier League table, just two points above the relegation zone.
This is not the first time Everton has faced punishment for breaching PSR rules. Back in November, they were docked 10 points for exceeding permitted losses by £19.5m over a period ending with the 2021/22 season. However, after a successful appeal, this penalty was reduced to six points.
The latest breach of PSR rules occurred in January, with Everton and Nottingham Forest both charged for violations over a period ending with the 2022/23 season. While Forest received a four-point deduction and have appealed the decision, Everton now find themselves facing further consequences.
Premier League clubs are subject to strict financial regulations, with a maximum loss of £105m allowed over a three-season period. Any club exceeding this limit will breach PSR rules and face penalties.
As Everton navigates this challenging situation, their upcoming fixtures will be crucial in their fight to secure their Premier League status. Fans can watch Everton’s next five games live on Sky Sports, starting with a tough match against Chelsea on Monday, April 15th.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as Everton looks to overcome these setbacks and push forward in the Premier League.
