- Offer expected to be £140m, not the £250m EFL wants
- Anger towards EFL chairman Rick Parry over Project Big Picture
The Premier League will attempt to finalise a bailout package for the English Football League on Wednesday but the anger generated by Project Big Picture has left some clubs unwilling to hand over money while Rick Parry is the EFL’s chairman.
The offer is expected to be worth £140m – payable in loans and grants – but that would be some way short of the £250m the EFL is seeking as it reels from the impact of Covid-19. An identical proposal has already been rejected by the EFL.
