What is happening on Friday?

Executives of the 20 Premier League clubs are meeting in London to discuss, and potentially decide on, new financial regulations that will determine the future direction of the competition. These measures have been under consideration in some form or another since October 2021, just as the game was emerging from the crisis of Covid.
