🚨 Man City Stirring the Pot Again - This Time Over £1.5bn EFL Deal

📝 THE FULL PICTURE: Manchester City are leading the charge against the Premier League’s proposed £1.5 billion handout to the English Football League. The league wants to vote on a 10-year plan at Thursday’s club meeting, but City have thrown in a counterproposal. Their main beef? How the package gets funded. The so-called big six would be asked to pay more, and City aren’t cool with a proposed hike in the transfer levy from 4% to 6% - that hits big spenders hardest. City already irritated other clubs by submitting late rule changes at the AGM back in June, which got crushed 19 votes to one. They’re still waiting on a judgment for their 115 FFP charges, and they don’t have many allies right now. The Premier League is cautiously optimistic about getting the 14 votes needed. The EFL’s Rick Parry might hold out for more cash, and if approved, 80% of the money would go to the Championship. 💭 MY TAKE: City love being the villain, don’t they? First the 115 charges, now they’re trying to block a lifeline for the lower leagues. Look, I get it - nobody wants to foot the bill alone. But bro, you’re one of the richest clubs on earth. This feels like more political games. The big six aren’t united either. Thursday’s meeting is gonna be messy. Buckle up.
