Premier League clubs unanimously approve 10-year EFL partnership proposal
All 20 Premier League clubs unanimously approved a proposed 10-year strategic partnership with the English Football League on July 30, 2026. The arrangement, intended to begin in the 2026/27 season, would be funded through a levy on player transfers, with contributions proportionate to each club’s income. No official value has been disclosed. Sky News reported a figure of £1.5 billion over 10 years, which the Premier League has neither confirmed nor denied. The EFL board will now assess the proposal before its 72 member clubs discuss and vote on it in the coming days.
