Premier League could adopt Uefa's financial fair-play regulations as early as the 2013-14 season The issue was discussed at a meeting of Premier League clubs last week and will be on the agenda in further meetings later this month. Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are understood to be most in favour of adopting the Uefa framework across the Premier League and, while other clubs have argued for some other form of salary cap, a clear majority are now in favour of new financial regulation. It is believed that Manchester City and Fulham were the two clubs last week who were least receptive to the new proposals while Sunderland are understood to have made the proposal that focuses on a mechanism to control wage inflation. A rule change would require the support of 14 out of the 20 clubs. Uefa's financial fair-play model asks clubs to support a "break-even" principle that would eventually require them to be self-financed, although benefactors would still be able to fund added investment on facilities or youth development. "Clubs are crying out for some kind of stability, some kind of predictability, some kind of regulation that will allow more clubs to compete and more clubs to develop themselves through more than simply spending on players," said Ivan Gazidis, the Arsenal chief executive. I think it's a result of a realisation of where does all this end? Many owners are saying, "How can I stay involved?" I do think the way football is moving towards an environment in which you don't have to lose enormous amounts of money, where you can break even, means that we are more likely to have more local owners and far more interest from good ownership around the world.
