Tracey Crouch is confident English football will have an independent regulator “in five years’ time” and insists Premier League profits are not at odds with recommended reforms outlined in her independent Fan-Led Review of Football Governance.

Next week marks one year since the release of the report which resulted in 10 strategic recommendations, principal among them the creation of “a new independent regulator for English Football (IREF) established by an Act of Parliament”.
