The UEFA is bound to soon come under fire for an FPP regulations review after the Man City ban got overthrown.

Rob Jones – a sports lawyer – says that the FPP rules has to be reviewed after the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) revoked Man City’s ban and UEFA will be pressurised to do that soon.

Asked by Stats Perform News how significant the decision is, Jones said: “If it’s detailed in the final award that there were procedural irregularities and conduct that UEFA were responsible for that has had a meaningful impact on the decision that has been made by CAS, then UEFA will be under a lot of pressure to make reforms of its procedures.

“I don’t think, looking at the media release, that there are ground-breaking, fundamental principles that have been decided as unlawful and affect other sports disputes procedures.”

“But the final award may reflect on some procedural issues that UEFA may need to address. And if that is the case then they will be under a lot of pressure – and not that they’re not under a lot of pressure anyway at the moment – to reform the FFP regulations.

“It seems to the general public like the rules don’t have teeth … surely the current FFP is not fit for purpose and they’ll be under a lot of pressure for a review of it.

“I know the president of UEFA has been talking about a luxury tax and other sorts of reforms generally. I think they are slightly delayed at the moment because of the pandemic.

“But certainly there will be a lot of pressure to at least review, if not conduct some minor or more material reforms on their policies and procedures.”
