Burnley, Leeds and Leicester are seeking to take legal action against Everton for a hefty £300 million after the Toffees were found to have violated Premier League spending regulations.
Mail Sport has obtained information that officials from the three clubs convened a meeting today to reiterate their plans to sue following the Premier League’s confirmation of Everton’s guilt and subsequent 10-point penalty, the largest in the history of the competition.
The three clubs, who feel wronged by Everton’s actions, are committed to pursuing legal action as they believe that the Toffees’ overspending had a direct impact on their own team’s performance and relegation.
With Everton appealing the points deduction, rival teams Burnley, Leeds and Leicester are standing firm in their intention to hold them accountable for their financial rule-breaking. They maintain that Everton’s excessive spending played a significant role in their relegations in the past, and they are determined to seek justice for the consequences they suffered as a result.
