UEFA's new plans for financial regulations in football have swerved a salary cap in a move that will come as a boost to elite clubs, according to a report.
European football's governing body had set out proposals next month to replace its Financial Fair Play rules with a US-style system seen in the NFL.
However, they have opted instead for a model which will see 70 per cent of club revenue allowed to be spent on salaries, claim The New York Times.
