Should Man City be worried? Premier League chiefs meet in London to discuss Everton points deduction, FFP breaches and possible transfer rule changes

The meeting, which is taking place at The Churchill Hyatt Regency Hotel in west London, has been lined up a matter of days after <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/everton-deducted-10-points-toffees-premier-league-relegation-zone-punishment-profitability-sustainability-rules-breach/blt57b3f269d5827b76" target="_blank">Everton were stripped of 10 points as a result of their failure to comply with Financial Fair Play regulations</a>. The Toffees have slipped to joint-bottom of the table as a result.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Everton are appealing that ruling, but things could get worse for them yet as <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/everton-nine-point-deduction-leeds-burnley-gbp300m-compensation/blt6235c93af46600ac" target="_blank">Leeds, Leicester and Burnley are preparing to seek £300 million ($377m) in compensation</a> as they believe bending the rules allowed the Toffees to preserve their top-flight status at the expense of law-abiding rivals.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The situation on Merseyside is expected to be one topic of discussion as Premier League stakeholders come together. West Ham vice-chairman Karren Brady and Burnley chief Alan Pace were among those spotted arriving at the crunch talks.

DID YOU KNOW?

Those in attendance are also expected to discuss <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/man-city-legal-challenge-premier-league-FFP-breaches-barrister-arsenal/blt9601330d6af3d2b5" target="_blank">Manchester City and the 115 charges hanging over them</a> for allegedly breaking financial rules. The reigning English champions may have cause for concern after seeing <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/relegation-looming-manchester-city-chelsea-everton-premier-league-points-deductions/bltd43535cbb61566f1" target="_blank">Everton punished for far less </a>than they were charged with back in February. The <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12774717/Evertons-10-point-deduction-Man-Citys-115-charges-banning-loans-associated-clubs-Karren-Brady-leads-Premier-League-chiefs-gathering-five-star-hotel-London-plenty-discuss.html " target="_blank">Daily Mail</a> reports that Premier League board members will ask for updates on how that saga is progressing.

WILL MAN CITY BE PUNISHED?

They are also keen to clear up the confusion regarding “associated clubs” loans – with Newcastle continuing to be <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/trouble-newcastle-loan-al-hilal-ruben-neves-jeopardy-premier-league-vote-explained/blt50efc59f8b394d4a" target="_blank">linked with a January move for Al-Hilal midfielder Ruben Neves</a> despite both teams being owned by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF). Deals between teams with the same owners could be banned if a vote gets the two-thirds majority needed to push a temporary ruling through.
