Premier League clubs will vote on amendments to associated party transactions later this month
In a London hotel later this month, officials representing the 20 Premier League clubs will convene to vote on what has become a thorny issue. Earlier this year, Manchester City launched legal action against the Premier League and its associated party transaction rules , with the reigning champions having made the move after deals with Etihad and Abu Dhabi First Bank were blocked due to existing APT rules.
There had been some suggestion that amendments would kick the door open to the likes of Manchester City and Newcastle being able to flex their financial muscle to a far greater extent, with the proposals meaning clubs would only have to demonstrate a deal ‘could’ rather than ‘would’ be agreed by another company that did not have links to ownership.
