In a recent statement from the Premier League, it has been confirmed that both Everton FC and Nottingham Forest FC have breached the Profitability and Sustainability Rules, resulting in losses that exceeded the permitted thresholds for the assessment period ending in the 2022/23 season. As a result, both clubs are facing potential sanctions, with separate Commissions being appointed to determine the appropriate actions.
Everton FC had already received a 10-point deduction earlier in the season due to a previous financial breach, leading to concerns about their position in the top-flight league. Similarly, Nottingham Forest FC may also face an increased threat of relegation.
Following these developments, Gary Neville has criticized the Premier League’s handling of the situation, particularly in comparison to the lenient treatment of top clubs involved in the attempted creation of a European Super League. He expressed concern over the disparity in the severity of punishments and questioned whether this marks a new approach to authority from the Premier League.
