Premier League To Introduce New Rule To Avoid Future Breakaway Attempts

The Premier League is understood to be introducing a new rule which will forbid any of its clubs from attempting to join a breakaway league following the Super League saga.

Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal all committed to join the Super League on Sunday evening, before pressure from both fans and the media caused all six clubs to withdraw.

Prior to the six teams announcing their decision to leave the competition, a whole host of threats were made by football’s governing bodies with regards to the players and clubs involved being banned from various competitions should they choose to go ahead with the plans.
