00:00 The Premier League has made clear that it believes Everton should be deducted 12 points

00:07 should they be found guilty of breaching Profit and Sustainability League rules.

00:12 The case came to light in March when an independent commission highlighted Everton's potential

00:18 wrongdoing to the Premier League following the release of the 2021-22 financial records

00:24 of Premier League clubs.

00:28 Everton have recorded losses of £371.8 million over the three year period leading up to that,

00:35 which is very much over the limit set by the league of £105 million worth of losses in

00:39 the same time period.

00:41 Everton insist they have not broken the rules but the Premier League are insisting of a

00:45 points deduction if they are found guilty.

00:48 This would be opposed to a transfer embargo or a fine.

00:52 A verdict is expected this year with the case currently having its hearing.
