UEFA is preparing big changes. From April 1, when the meeting of the Executive Committee will take place, there will be no Financial Fair Play. A new plan will (probably) be implemented that will allow teams to spend up to 70% of their revenue.

According to the "New York Times", the clubs should instead be obliged not to spend more than 70 percent of their income on transfers and salaries, for example. The newspaper relies on unnamed sources from the environment of the reform negotiations. A decision on the new system should therefore be made at the upcoming UEFA Executive Committee meeting in early April.

The reform of the so-called Financial Fair Play has been discussed at UEFA for months. In principle, this stipulates that the clubs participating in the European Cup may not spend significantly more than they earn. In the past, however, the rules were repeatedly circumvented - especially by clubs that are supported by investors or states.

UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin is said to have been a supporter of the salary cap. A kind of luxury tax for clubs that spend too much was also reported. At the beginning of February, the new managing director of the German Football League, Donata Hopfen, also spoke out in favor of an upper salary limit. Football would do itself a favor if player salaries were regulated, the 45-year-old said in an interview with "Bild am Sonntag".
