Arabnews24.ca:Friday 24 March 2023 02:56 PM: Everton have been referred to an independent commission by the Premier League for an alleged breach of financial rules.

The alleged breach of the league's profitability and sustainability rules is in relation to the period ending with the 2021-22 season.

In a club statement, Everton said they were "disappointed" by the Premier League's decision.

"The club strongly contests the allegation of non-compliance and together with its independent team of experts is entirely confident that it remains compliant with all financial rules and regulations.

"Everton is prepared to robustly defend its position to the commission. The club has, over several years, provided information to the Premier League in an open and transparent manner and has consciously chosen to act with the utmost good faith at all times."
