Fans' Reactions
Supporters were left astounded by the missed opportunity of their clubs to secure Eze, with many expressing regret over the rejection, especially after his stellar performances in the Premier League.
Future Prospects

Frequently Asked Questions
How has Premier League evolved from its creation?
Since its founding in 1992, there have been many changes in the Premier League. The Premier League began as a breakaway league from the Football League in order to benefit from lucrative television rights deals. Since then, it has grown into a global sporting phenomenon, attracting top talent from all over the world, undergoing branding changes, and experiencing massive increases in revenue. The league has also experienced advancements in sport science, training facilities and stadium technologies. This has contributed to an overall improvement of the football spectacle.
What is the role of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) in the Premier League?
The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system is utilized in the Premier League to aid on-field referees in making the correct decisions regarding goals, penalty decisions, direct red card incidents, and cases of mistaken identity. The VAR watches the video footage of the incident, and then advises the match referee. This referee can choose to watch a replay before making the final call. The system is designed to reduce human error that can affect the outcome of matches.
Is the Premier League governed by financial regulations?
Financial Fair Play Rules (FFP rules) are part of the Premier League’s financial regulations. They were designed to ensure that clubs do not spend beyond their means while promoting financial stability. These rules require that clubs limit their losses and make sure they do not outspend their revenues from football activities. These regulations are designed to encourage clubs to spend responsibly and maintain balance within their league.
What do you think of the Premier League concept called the ‘Big Six?
The Big Six refers collectively to the Premier League’s most successful clubs and influential teams in recent history. The list typically includes Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur. These teams are known as having a strong fan base with a lot of money, for their high-level performances, and for qualifying frequently for European tournaments like the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, and UEFA Cup.
How does the Premier League determine its winner?
The winner of the Premier League is the team that accrues the highest number of points over the course of the 38-game season. For a win or a draw, teams earn three points. Losses are not worth any points. If two teams have the same amount of points at the end of the season, the winner will be determined by their goal difference. If the teams remain level, they may use a match at a neutral stadium to decide the championship. This scenario has never been seen in Premier League.
