Premier League clubs have been warned to agree a new funding deal with the EFL within the next 18 months or have one imposed on them by a new independent regulator.
The Government will today confirm their support in principle for the findings of MP Tracey Crouch’s fan-led review, which recommended the creation of a new independent regulator for English football when it was published last night.
The precise scope of the new regulator will be determined by Government, but it could revolutionise English football if some of the review’s more radical recommendations are implemented.
