Club receives an additional penalty for breaching the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules.
Everton have been docked two more points by the Premier League – their second points deduction this season – after the club’s appeal against a breach of profitability and sustainability rules (PSR) was unsuccessful, the league says.
The deduction, announced on Monday, leaves Everton in 16th place on 27 points, two above the relegation zone.
“The independent commission heard evidence and arguments from the club on a range of potential mitigating factors for its admitted breach of 16.6 million pounds [$21m], including the impact of its two successive PSR charges,” the league said.
“The commission determined the appropriate sanction to be a two-point deduction, taking effect immediately,” it said in a statement.
Everton said it planned to appeal again.
