    In the Premier League, 12 of 20 clubs reported profits in their latest accounts, with a combined surplus of £304m. For the 72 clubs below the top flight which makes up the EFL, 75% of clubs recorded losses, with a combined deficit totalling £388m.

    The Premier League's latest three-year broadcast deal is worth more than £5bn, while the EFL's came to £595m over five years. 20% of clubs in the EFL "are just not sustainable".

    Bubble will burst eventually and some clubs will disappear entirely because of it.
