Premier League transfers tax ruled out by Starmer
LABOUR will not introduce a 10 per cent tax on Premier League transfers, Keir Starmer clarified today after reports his party was considering the move.
Shadow culture and sport secretary Thangam Debbonaire sparked reports Labour could introduce the transfer levy on Monday when she said she would “look at everything” proposed in the recent fan-led review of football governance.
But this morning, Starmer killed off the idea, telling LBC’s Nick Ferrari it was “not part of our plans for football governance.”
