Premier League clubs vote in new 'squad cost ratio' rules
"Premier League owners have voted to introduce "squad cost ratio" and sustainability measures beginning from next season, although they rejected a proposal for "top-to-bottom anchoring.""
"The Premier League confirmed that breaches of the new proposals -- called Squad Cost Ratio (SCR) and Sustainability and Systematic Resilience (SSR) -- will be met with a "sporting sanction.""
"SCR will regulate clubs' on-pitch spending to 85% of their football revenue and net profit/loss on player sales. Clubs will have a multi-year allowance of 30% that they can use to spend in excess of the 85%. Utilising this allowance will incur a levy and once the allowance is exhausted, they will need to comply with 85% or face a sporting sanction."
Premier League owners voted to introduce Squad Cost Ratio (SCR) and Sustainability and Systematic Resilience (SSR) measures starting next season while rejecting a proposal for top-to-bottom anchoring. SCR will cap clubs' on-pitch spending at 85% of football revenue plus net profit or loss on player sales. Clubs receive a multi-year 30% allowance to exceed the 85% threshold; using that allowance triggers a levy. Once the allowance is exhausted clubs must comply with the 85% limit or face a sporting sanction. Breaches of SCR and SSR will be met with sporting sanctions.
