Premier League change transfer rules for Manchester United and Man City after Chelsea vote
12.12.2023 - 16:55 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
A new limit on which transfer fees can be amortised by Premier League clubs in their accounts has been installed as part of a significant rule change from the division's governing body.
The change - which will affect Manchester United, Manchester City and rivals moving forward - was passed at the latest meeting for Premier League shareholders on Tuesday morning. It came after clubs had been able to exploit a well-documented loophole with previously-existing guidelines.
As things were, top-flight clubs were able to spread the cost of transfer fees across the entire length of a player's contract. That allowed them to make signings on long contracts and potentially spread out their costs to maintain a healthier reading when it came to their financial obligations and showcasing them through FFP.

Chelsea, in particular, have come in for criticism for how they have used the previous system - making several big-money signings and tying them down to long-term contracts. Ukraine winger Mykhailo Mudryk was brought in for £62million on a Premier League-record eight-and-a-half year contract in January 2023.
His teammate Enzo Fernandez put pen-to-paper until 2031 upon a £106million move from Benfica around the same time. The rule change will not, though, be backdated to affect previously completed deals.
The limit falls into line with UEFA's own regulations. Although their financial rules are governed separately, the new limit has also been set at five years, regardless of the length of a contract.
