No More Hidden Deals: Premier League Closes Loopholes on Club Spending
Premier League clubs voted on Friday to overhaul the competition’s financial rules, introducing a new system that focuses solely on spending directly related to on-pitch performance. By a majority of 14 to 6, clubs approved the Squad Cost Ratio (SCR) model, which will limit “on-pitch spending” to 85% of football-related revenue plus net profit or loss from player sales.

Worst Defence Faces Serie A’s Most ‘Democratic’ Goalscoring Team
Returning from the international break, Fiorentina,  bottom of the Serie A table and owner of the league’s worst defence, host a Juventus side still unbeaten under Luciano Spalletti and boasting the most diverse range of goalscorers so far this season. Fiorentina welcome Juventus to the Stadio Artemio Franchi in the first big match of Serie A’s 12th round. It is a historic rivalry that today brings together two completely different realities: on one side, the desperate need for points for the Viola; on the other, the Bianconeri’s ambition to secure a stable Champions League spot.
