Everton could lose another 9 points. What happened?

Three English clubs intend to sue Everton after the Toffees were deducted 10 points for violating the league's financial rules.

It is reported that Burnley, Leicester and Leeds, which have all been relegated from the Premier League in recent years, are preparing a lawsuit worth £100 million each, based on the loss of Premier League revenue. Over the past two seasons, Everton has been fighting with these teams to retain their Premier League status.

Everton's potential buyers, 777Partners, have committed to allocating around £20m a month to cover the club's running costs while the Premier League evaluates their takeover bid, but they are not prepared to pay compensation that could run into hundreds of millions of pounds.

The source claims that if an independent commission finds Everton liable to pay the money, the club will face another point deduction if it fails to pay. In this case, the Liverpudlians could lose another nine points, which is almost certainly a relegation.

After 10 points were deducted, the team Vitaliy Mykolenko plays for dropped to 19th place in the standings.
