The Premier League's Relegation Battle: What Comes Next?
As three clubs fight to avoid relegation from the Premier League, Everton's financial losses of £371.8m between 2018 and 2021 have led to an investigation into the club's spending, with a decision expected before next season. Rival clubs have pressed for a resolution, aware that a potential points deduction for financial violations might seal Everton's relegation instead of their own. The Premier League has been pushing for a resolution, too, but the independent commission has refused to be hurried. Everton, a fixture in the Premier League since its inception in 1992, currently holds a slim advantage over its rivals.
