Failure to comply could also result in the clubs being banned from UEFA competition in the 2024-25 and 2025-26 seasons, as well as being banned from registering new players in the 2026-27 season. Inter and Roma have one additional season to comply with the new rules. Nineteen other clubs, including Manchester City, Chelsea, West Ham United, Leicester City and Barcelona avoided punishment due to the emergency relief measures UEFA instituted during the COVID-19 pandemic or because they had benefited from historically positive break-even results. UEFA said it had asked these 19 clubs for more financial information and told them they would be monitored closely in future as neither COVID-related deductions nor historical finances would be considered from the next financial year. — Agencies
