Everton, a Premier League club, faces further consequences as they incur a two-point deduction for breaching the league’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) yet again. This recent charge, alongside Nottingham Forest in January, underscores the severity of the issue.
While Forest contests their four-point deduction through an appeal, Everton grapples with their own setback. Positioned 15th in the Premier League prior to the deduction, the club now slips to 16th place, just above the relegation zone.
This isn’t Everton’s first encounter with PSR violations; a prior deduction of 10 points in November, later reduced to six, highlights the ongoing struggle to navigate financial regulations within the league.
