English Premier League club Everton faced another setback as they were docked two more points for breaching financial rules, pushing them closer to the relegation zone. This comes after an initial six-point deduction, which was reduced from 10 following an appeal, for overspending in the 2021-22 season. The latest sanction stemmed from excessive spending in the three seasons leading up to 2022-23, violating league profit and financial sustainability rules. Everton overspent by £16.6 million, prompting the additional points deduction. The club expressed concern over the inconsistency of penalties and announced plans to appeal the decision.
