Everton deducted 10 points for breach of Premier League financial rules<\/h3>\n

The Premier League\u2019s traditional \u2018Big Six\u2019 has reportedly been instructed to \u2018pay up\u2019 as part of the \u00a3130million rescue package being organised for the rest of the football pyramid. Tensions are running high in board rooms around England currently following the point deduction imposed on Everton earlier this week.<\/p>\n

The Premier League is hoping to strike a deal with the lower divisions over the wealth gap as soon as possible, with how the money is filtered down the chain a major cause for concern for many clubs that are in desperate need of more regular financial backing.<\/p>\n

A meeting between the 20 top-tier shareholders in the Premier League is set to take place on Tuesday, in what is a crucial day for clubs at all levels.<\/p>\n

According to The Telegraph, tensions are set to resurface during the meeting due to the point deduction that Everton were hit with for breaching the Premier League\u2019s profitability and sustainability rules.<\/p>\n

Clubs are in agreement that the method by which money is filtered down the football pyramid must be reviewed, but there is a divide between the \u2018Big Six\u2019 and the rest of the Premier League. The smaller sides feel that richer clubs should be contributing more to the solidarity pot, and the idea of a transfer tax has been sounded out that would see a percentage of fees additionally paid when purchasing players.<\/p>\n

However, a transfer levy is the more probable outcome at this stage which would be formulated using prize money and other factors. That agreement is expected to be finalised on Tuesday, much to the frustration of some clubs.<\/p>\n
