It was announced on Monday that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-in/lists/more-punishment-everton-toffees-relegation-dogfight-deducted-two-points-premier-league-profit-sustainability-rules-breach/blt935657501bd7ac77" target="_blank">the Toffees have been hit with a two-point penalty</a> by the Premier League for breaching Profit and Sustainability Rules. The Merseyside club confirmed that they "have begun the preparations to appeal the [Premier League] Commission’s decision."

WHAT HAPPENED?

However, the appeal may not be resolved until after the end of the 2023-24 campaign, according to journalist <a href="https://twitter.com/_pauljoyce/status/1777330484030157013" target="_blank">Paul Joyce</a>. The dispute with the Premier League revolves around money spent on stadium construction, which the Premier League consider to be losses, while Everton maintain the £16.6 million ($21m) breach should not be deemed a loss.

THE EXPLANATION

The deduction, which leaves Sean Dyche's team two points above the Premier League relegation zone, is the second Everton have been hit with this season. They lost 10 points for breaching financial rules earlier this season, though that punishment <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/huge-relief-everton-toffees-10-point-premier-league-deduction-reduced-six-successful-appeal/bltb185bc92c3619fe7" target="_blank">was reduced to six on appeal</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Everton's latest blow has resulted in <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/social-media-explodes-everton-second-points-deduction-premier-league-financial-rules-breach-man-city-next/blt128d70f0b3e7056b" target="_blank">fans calling for Manchester City to be hit with a massive punishment</a> as the reigning European and English champions face charges of 115 charges for breaking financial rules.

DID YOU KNOW?

Everton will continue their fight to survive in the Premier League as the end of the season draws near. They face a tough test in their next game as they come up against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on April 15, followed by a home match against Nottingham Forest six days later.
