Summary
The Premier League is considering changing its rules about how much money clubs can lose, known as profit and sustainability rules (PSR). These rules let clubs lose £105 million over three years but have been said to restrict investment. A decision on possibly adopting a new system called the squad cost ratio (SCR), which ties spending to a percentage of revenue, is expected in November.
