Leeds United plans January transfers
Background of the dispute
Leeds United and Everton have resolved their disagreement over Everton’s breach of Premier League’s financial rules for the 2021-22 season. It came to light that Everton exceeded the permissible financial losses during that period, leading to the dispute.
Details of the breach
In the initial ruling in November 2023, Everton was penalized with a 10-point deduction for crossing the loss limit by an approximate amount of â¬18 million. After an appeal process in February 2024, the penalty was reduced to six points. According to the Premier League, clubs can incur losses up to â¬131 million over a span of three years.
Agreement reached
Although Leeds United and Everton have reached an agreement believed to have been finalized last season, neither club has provided public statements about the settlement, keeping the terms confidential.
Remaining claims
Burnley remains in pursuit of compensation, suggesting that not all involved parties have settled. Clubs like Nottingham Forest, Southampton, and Leicester, who were part of the initial complaint, continue without an agreement.
