Everton finally out of the woods as Premier League give up on PSR case

talksport.com, 17 January 2025, 15:32
Everton will face no further punishment regarding an outstanding profitability and sustainability rule dispute.

The Toffees were being plagued by a lingering PSR dispute regarding the club's 2023 accounts.

Everton have already admitted to a breach of £16.6million for the 2022/23 season, leading to a two-point deducting from an independent commission in April.

But a dispute had continued regarding the capitalisation of interest payments, a matter that could have led to further punishments if a further breach was found.

The club said that these were related to their Bramley-Moore Dock stadium construction, and whether these should be considered costs or losses.

However both Everton and the Premier League have now confirmed that the matter is now closed.

An Everton statement read: "Everton can confirm the club has resolved all outstanding Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) charges brought by the Premier League.

"The Premier League has formally discontinued the second part of the PSR complaint for the period ending FY23 and has deemed the Club PSR compliant for FY24."

A joint statement from Everton and the Premier League added: "The second part of the case was paused to allow time for the club to provide further information and documents to the Premier League Board concerning the relevant accounting treatment adopted.

"After considering the further information and documents provided by the club in detail, the Premier League Board has concluded that it would not be appropriate or proportionate to continue to pursue the second part of their complaint.

"The club and the league agree that this brings to an end all proceedings between the league and the club in relation to the club's breaches of the PSR for the financial years ending 30 June 2022 and 30 June 2023."

Everton can now focus solely on the task of preserving their Premier League status.

With David Moyes back in charge, the Toffees sit in 16th spot in the table but just one point above the drop zone.

Everton will be determined to start life in their stunning new stadium in the top flight, with this term expected to be their last at Goodison Park.

Moyes' side are next in action on Sunday, January 19th when they host Tottenham.
