Everton ‘risk another points deduction’ with Prem ready to take action | Football | Sport

The uncertainty surrounding the club has also ensured that contract talks between Everton and Dyche were delayed. That is despite the Toffees wanting to extend the former Burnley boss’ time at Goodison, according to the Daily Mail.

Dyche insisted that he and the club were « shocked » when told of their 10-point deduction earlier this month, but could be handed a further blow in their bid to avoid relegation from the league.

Once they submit their financial accounts for the current season there will be a nervy wait to hear whether they are found to have breached financial rules once again, which could result in another penalty this season.
