Everton may face a potential compensation payment of about 50m to Burnley if a ruling finds Everton gained a sporting advantage by breaching Premier League Profitability and Sustainability rules. Burnley's claim relates to the 2021-22 relegation battle when Everton, under Farhad Moshiri, allegedly overspent and finished above Burnley, preserving top-flight status. Everton received a points deduction for PSR breaches, initially ten points later reduced to six on appeal, which was applied in 2022-23 after Burnley's relegation. Burnley seeks lost earnings from a season in the Championship and must prove the spending produced a sporting advantage.
