Everton’s point deduction is decided upon, and the table is updated with Sheffield United’s Premier League opponents.

Following Everton’s breach of the Premier League‘s profitability and sustainability rules, which resulted in a 10-point deduction, the club appealed the decision and has now seen a reduction in their punishment.

The amended points tally places Everton at 25 points, positioning them 15th in

the league table and granting them a five-point cushion above the relegation zone.

In a statement released by Everton, it was confirmed that an appeal board had concluded to reduce the points deduction from 10 to six, effective immediately.

The club expressed satisfaction with the outcome, stating that the appeal board found the original punishment to be inappropriate when compared against relevant benchmarks,

including those outlined in EFL regulations and the Premier League’s own rules regarding insolvency.

Additionally, Everton welcomed the appeal board’s decision to overturn the original

finding that the club failed to act in utmost good faith, considering it a crucial point of principle.

Despite the positive outcome, the club remains fully committed to cooperating with the Premier

League regarding ongoing proceedings related to the accounting period ending in June 2023.

While Everton continues to assess the wider implications of the decision, they have

expressed gratitude to their Fan Advisory Board, other fan groups, and all Evertonians for

their support and patience

throughout the process. No further comments will be made at this time.
