EFL chairman Rick Parry's job is under threat after his secret talks with Liverpool and Manchester United over Project Big Picture could cost a bailout with seven clubs at risk of going bust this month

Rick Parry's job as EFL chairman is under threat amid concerns that his secret negotiations over Project Big Picture could cost the clubs a bailout from the Premier League.

At an EFL board meeting last week, it was revealed that seven clubs could go bust later this month if they do not receive a rescue package from the Premier League.

That bailout has been jeopardised by Parry's talks with Liverpool and Manchester United over a radical restructure of the top flight.
