Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham will be affected by UEFA's new regulations to tighten up on licensing and financial sustainability issues ahead of the 2022/23 European campaign.
The latter two of the London trio will be competing in the 2022/23 Champions League after Thomas Tuchel's and Antonio Conte's side finished in third and fourth respectively in the final 2022/21 Premier League standings. Meanwhile, Arsenal and Mikel Arteta will be fighting for a Europa League title which the club lost to their Blue compatriots in the capital back in 2018/19 when Maurizio Sarri got the better of former Gunners manager and current Villarreal boss Unai Emery.
Before both competitions kick off next season, UEFA have now introduced a set of new regulations to try and reduce the inequality between the so-called bigger and smaller teams in each competition, to try and make the competition interesting and fair. It has been announced that on this first day of June, UEFA have introduced new rules which will effectively replace Financial Fair Play with the idea of excessive big-spending being limited for the so-called European elite in some areas. A move that has been done to promote fairness and the integrity of the three major European competitions.
