“Joey Barton Sparks Controversy with Scathing Comments on Everton, Saudi Influence, and Premier League Integrity”
Having had a brief stint in his youth career at Everton, Joey Barton represents an unfortunate association for the club due to his controversial behavior and history.
Despite their limited intersection, many within the football community today
would prefer not to be linked with someone openly expressing sexist views,
consistently using social media platforms to argue against women’s involvement in men’s game punditry.
Barton, the former Manchester City midfielder, who often appears agitated online, has been sharing provocative opinions in recent months, perhaps in an attempt to stay relevant.
In his latest comments related to Everton, Barton expressed sentiments that may resonate with many fans.
Taking to a particular platform (referred to as “X”), he reacted to the latest news impacting Everton, which involves none other than Newcastle United.
Known for his impulsive online demeanor, Barton frequently speaks without much forethought, leading to poorly considered claims and subsequent contradictions.
His current frustration stems from reports that Saudi Arabia might financially assist Newcastle United in addressing their Financial Fair Play (FFP) issues, with rumored interest in acquiring Miguel Almiron.
Barton disapproves of this development, pointing to the connections between the Saudi Pro League and Newcastle’s ownership.
He voiced his concerns: ‘If @NUFC sell Miguel Almiron to Saudi.
And @Everton and @NFFC end up having points deductions. At what point do @ChelseaFC and @NUFC summer Saudi transfers and Saudi investments in the clubs come under intense scrutiny? It does look very corrupt @premierleague.
Two-tiered policing of the game. Not to mention @ManCity and the 115 charges currently disputed.
You could be forgiven for thinking Premier League is Corrupt?’
