Scudamore: Premier League will abide by FIFA ruling

Chief executive Richard Scudamore has confirmed the Premier League will abide by any ruling FIFA make should football’s world governing body step in to rule on the Carlos Tevez affair.

FIFA are still considering their response following a high-level meeting of officials from the Premier League, FA, West Ham and Manchester United yesterday but it appears increasingly likely they will make the final decision on the status of Tevez’s relationship with West Ham.
