WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH EVERTON AND MANCHESTER CITY?
Everton's Punishment
Last week, Everton, a Premier League team, was docked 10 points by the league. This means that they lost 10 points from their overall score. The reason for this punishment is that Everton broke the financial rules of the Premier League. The league has a rule that says clubs can only lose £105 million over three years. But an investigation found that Everton lost £124.5 million by 2021-22. As a result, Everton has fallen from 14th to 19th place in the league table.
Everton's Appeal
Everton has said that they will appeal the decision. This means they will ask for the punishment to be changed or removed. The appeal will be decided before the end of this season.
Manchester City's Investigation
Now, everyone is wondering what will happen with Manchester City. They are being investigated for breaking the same financial rules as Everton. In February, the Premier League charged Manchester City with breaking many financial rules. These rules go all the way back to the 2009/10 season.
The Premier League's Statement
The Premier League made a statement about the investigation. They said that they have referred Manchester City's case to a commission. This commission is independent and will decide if Manchester City broke the rules. The commission's decision will be private, but the final award will be published on the Premier League's website.
Possible Punishments
There are rumors about what punishments Manchester City could face. Some people think they might get a 30-point deduction. This means they would lose 30 points from their overall score. Others think they might be automatically relegated to the Championship, which is a lower league. However, it is unlikely that they will be stripped of their Premier League titles from previous seasons.
What Will Happen?
It is still unclear what will happen with Manchester City. The situation is described as unprecedented, which means it has never happened before. We will have to wait and see what the commission decides.
