Premier League rejects clubs ‘appeal to fast-track’ Everton charges

A number of top clubs have asked the Premier League to “fast-track” Everton’s charges for alleged breaches of the financial rules, so that any punishment can be imposed before the end of this season.

However, Terryanews has been told those requests have been rejected by the Premier League, who responded by saying the disciplinary procedures must follow a strict due process.

The timeframe will be dictated by the independent commission which is assessing the case.

But it’s almost inevitable that any punishment (which could include a points deduction) will come after the end of this season, and so will not affect Everton’s battle against relegation.

Everton are adamant they have done nothing wrong.

In March, the Premier League announced it had charged Everton for breaching profit and sustainability rules for the three-year period ending in 2022, but there has been no comment from the Premier League since.

There has been no indication about how long Everton’s case will take, because there is no precedent for such an investigation being completed.
