Why is Everton about to be deducted 12 points by the Premier League, and Man City is still worried?

"Everton's case is being examined by an independent committee, after they recorded a financial loss of up to £304 million over a three-year period, much higher than the allowed limit of £105 million set by the Premier League. The verdict on Everton will be made at the end of the year. But now, the Premier League has proposed to deduct 12 points from the team for violating rules on profit and sustainability," said The Telegraph (UK).

Everton FC faces relegation risk if deducted 12 points

"Everton are racing to fight allegations of breaking their financial regulations with the Premier League. But the possibility of winning is almost non-existent. They are facing the risk of being severely punished and could soon fall on the brink of relegation in the 2023-2024 season," shared The Telegraph .

Everton are currently ranked 16th in the Premier League this season with 7 points after 9 matches, only 3 points ahead of the team closest to the relegation group, Burnley. Therefore, if the Premier League deducts 12 points, they will have a negative score and face a very high risk of relegation. In addition, the Goodison Park team will also be fined by the Premier League and banned from transferring.

The case of penalizing Everton for violating the financial rules of the Premier League, will also make clubs like Man City fear. In February this year, Man City was accused of violating up to 115 financial regulations in 14 Premier League seasons from the 2009-2010 season to the previous season 2022-2023.

Former Liverpool player Jamie Carragher also spoke out on this occasion: "If the Premier League punishes Everton, they must also punish Man City for the 115 allegations of violating financial regulations that have been announced. They must relegate Man City by 5 divisions, and bring this team that has committed serious violations back to the semi-professional league, to really convince everyone."
