Everton have been charged by the Premier League for breaching the division’s Profit and Sustainability rules (PSR) for a second time, having already faced a 10-point deduction this season, according to the league.
Nottingham Forest have also been charged with breaches of the same policies.
“Everton FC and Nottingham Forest have each confirmed to the Premier League that they are in breach of the league’s PSR,” the league said in a statement. This is as a result of sustaining losses above the permitted thresholds for the assessment period ending 2022-23.”
“In accordance with Premier League rules, both cases have now been referred to the chair of the judicial panel, who will appoint separate commissions to determine the appropriate sanction.”
Should Everton be found guilty by the independent Premier League commission, they could face a further points deduction, as could Forest.
“Nottingham Forest acknowledges the statement from the Premier League confirming that the club has today been charged with a breach of the league’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules,” Forest said in a statement.
“The club intends to continue to cooperate fully with the Premier League on this matter and are confident of a speedy and fair resolution.”
The commissions are independent of the Premier League and its clubs, and will hear the cases in private. The decisions taken will be made public by the Premier League. –ESPN
