Last month, Everton were ordered to pay Burnley around £38M in compensation for a breach of financial rules, the largest financial penalty ever imposed on a Premier League club. The verdict came via a Premier League independent disciplinary commission and arrived despite Everton's 10-point deduction releating to the same £19.5M breach in November 2023. Everton confirmed the club will appeal the compensation punishment in an official statement last month. "Everton believes the panel’s ruling misrepresents the clear evidence presented by its legal representatives and that an appeal will be successful."
