“UEFA’s first financial regulations, introduced in 2010, served its primary purpose,” Ceferin said at the Executive Committee meeting in Nyon.

UEFA Fair Play Rules: “However, the evolution of the football industry, alongside the inevitable financial effects of the pandemic, has shown the need for wholesale reform and new financial sustainability regulations.”
UEFA added that acceptable losses will double from 30 million euros ($32.74 million) over three years to 60 million euros over the same period.
