According to a report by The Lawyer, Everton are one of those clubs who are expected to back City’s fight against the Premier League.

Two other clubs are also believed to be ready to support the Premier League powerhouses with Chelsea and Newcastle United also of the same mindset.

However, the report from Sky does claim the majority of the league are ready to go against City on this one.

Everton must tread carefully in backing Manchester City

There is a fine line between feeling aggrieved by the Premier League’s decision earlier in the season to deduct points from the Toffees.

However, City’s charges are above and beyond anything that has been seen before in the top flight and would have huge ramifications if they are found guilty.

Given the severity of their charges and the number being racked up against them, Everton must tread carefully in picking their battles against the league.

As one of the reports states, the large majority of the Premier League clubs are against City on this one with Everton joining two of the league’s richest sides in backing the financial giants that are City.
