Leeds United's Premier League rivals Everton have published their accounts for the 2020/21 campaign and although the numbers make for grim reading for Toffees supporters, the club are reportedly confident of avoiding a points deduction. As outlined by the Liverpool Echo, Everton have posted losses of £120.9m for the most recent financial year, which when added to the £139.9m losses recorded for the previous year, takes the club past the £260m for the last financial two years.
That number is the highest in the Premier League for the last two financial years and paints a picture of challenges in the face of unprecedented circumstances. According to the Echo report, around £170m of the £260.8m lost over the last two financial years is directly attributed to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic by the club.
