Tottenham will have 30 points deducted from their tally in the Premier League if they ever join a breakaway league like the European Super League, Sun Sports reports.
The Lilywhites are one of the teams that wanted to break away from UEFA to form the new club competition.
It was foiled after fans protested their teams’ participation and it drew strong criticism from around the world.
The Premier League has now fined the six rebelling teams £3.5m each and they have agreed to the points deduction penalties for any future attempts.
This is a punishment they forced the Premier League to hand out to them to draw a line and secure their allegiance to UEFA in the future.
The report says the other 14 teams who didn’t take part in the scheme might not be happy with the punishment.
Some of them had been pushing for immediate points deductions, but Premier league chief, Richard Masters, recognises that the top six are the key clubs in the competition and he feels the above punishment is enough.
Spurs’ decision to join that botched effort has backfired with more fans turning against their leadership.
It came at a time when their team was struggling on the pitch and Jose Mourinho was sacked.
They will hope to move on from this and deliver some memorable moments to their fans next season.
