Football. ua presents, with your respect, a translation of material from The Athletic about the situation at the Premier League in connection with possible sanctions against certain teams.

The certificate of Everton and Nottingham Forest was transferred to the independent commission due to the transfer of violations of the rules for the payment of funds.

This season of the Premier League has brought the most damage in its history due to punishment for violating the rules of financial fair play, and Everton, who were awarded 10 points in the fall, may not be the only ones who are subject to such a share.

Having recently appointed Manchester United director of football John Murtough, we learned from the 2023/24 season that the financial fair play rules in the English Premier League are not empty words.. Through this many clubs, the leagues show special and deep respect for how many pennies are spent and will be spent in the future.

So what is FFP, and what will happen if you break the rules

First of all, it’s not really called FFP.

Well, no – strictly apparent. FFP is a structure of UEFA, and the financial regulations of the main body of European football.

In the Premier League, its equivalent is called the rules of profitability and stability (P\u0026S), which have gained rank since the 2015/16 season.

UEFA has a completely different set of financial rules that apply to clubs under its umbrella: Champions League, European League and Conference League.

Well, what do the P\u0026S rules allow

Premier League clubs can get cash from the world? 15 million ($19.2 million) over the three-year period of financial monitoring, in which overruns are allowed up to? 105 million for the mind, what is the difference in? 90 million will be covered for the provision of reliable financing from the side of the Vlasniks to the club - so that by purchasing a large number of shares, and not just by providing a loan to the club.

Due to the significant financial losses incurred by football in the 2019/20 and 2020/21 seasons, when matches were played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus pandemic, all financial losses were consolidated and moderated. Clubs with their partners can also write off the financial gains that they have recognized as a result of the pandemic through these two fates.

Further write-offs can be generated from investments in the sphere that are important for the long-term benefit and development of football. For example, youth development, infrastructure development, women's football and community work.

How the rules have changed the rest of the time?

Previously, since the results of the P\u0026S assessment were recorded as a surplus that exceeded the limit of 15 million pounds sterling over three years, the clubs were unable to provide financial information for the coming two seasons until the 31st of March, and then submit evidence of reliable future financing to cover these surpluses.

However, through such terms, potential serious damage could not be considered in the same season.

Thanks to the new rules, taxes for 2022-2023 are limited until 31 breasts, and not until 2023. Any damage or further damage will be confirmed until 15:00.

However, teams are not necessarily aware of their actual share until the end of the season. Appeals must be submitted by May 24, five days after the remaining matches of the Premier League for the 2023/24 season..

That's what it's called \? Chelsea"

This means that clubs can now amortize transfer fees spread over the investment period by a maximum of five years.

Chelsea bypassed the rules of the FFP, having signed contracts with half of the figures such as Enzo Fernandez and Mikhailo Mudryk, and divided their spending during this troubling period.

Fortunately for Chelsea, the new policy of the major football authorities to limit the term of depreciation and amortization of expenses has not yet come into effect last summer.

What will happen if the clubs break the rules?

Clubs that exceed the P\u0026S threshold limit of 15 million pounds sterling, and lack reliable funding to cover their surpluses, can limit their budgets and spend on transfers with the league's finances. about taking care of your financial needs.

Those who break the high limit of 105 million pounds sterling will be sent to the independent commission, where more penalties can be drawn up, such as the deduction of points..

Everton lost a point for violating the rules of the Premier League for profitability and financial stability, if they were deducted 10 points. The “taffy” decision has already been discredited.
