Proposals have reportedly included spending being capped to between four and five times the amount the lowest-earning Premier League club receives in TV revenue.
Leeds United, who finished 19th in the Premier League in the 2022-23 season, earned £112m in broadcast revenue – the least out of the 20 clubs in the top flight.
Sixteen clubs approved proposals for the Premier League to complete the final economic and legal analysis needed to create a spending-cap model.
The model might be presented to clubs at June’s annual general meeting (AGM), and if voted through it would replace the current Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) from the 2025-26 season onwards.
Manchester City, Manchester United and Aston Villa opposed the possible introduction of a spending cap on Monday, while Chelsea abstained.
The vote on Monday only concerned the development of a model, not the introduction of one.
For me this is going to be a similar mistake like the transfer window ending before the first game.
Screwed PL clubs good and proper. If all of Europe joins in it could work but if it’s just England it’s setting up for being outbid for players.
Though you’d like to think if City come calling players would want to sign
This will probably put us at a disadvantage across Europe.

I think the most interesting bits;
