Premier League clubs are set to vote for tougher rules on related-party commercial deals, in what will be seen as another attempt to restrict Saudi-owned Newcastle.
Mail Sport understands several top-flight sides are pushing for the changes that would make it more difficult for the likes of Newcastle to agree partnerships with Saudi companies, and so increase their commercial revenue.
Under the proposal, clubs would now have to prove they had multiple offers of the same value.
At present, under rules brought in following Newcastle’s takeover in 2021, such deals are tested by the Premier League’s ‘Fair Market Value’ process.
