The EFL have proposed a new approach to how revenue is distributed across its member clubs.

Proposals have been put forward to redistribute the levels of finance received Championship clubs, who currently receive more due to the costs borne directly from Goal Line Technology and Select Group 2 Match Officials.

The EFL have predicted that, in the 2019/20 season, on current trends, the Championship would receive 71.15% of revenue if using the current model.

This would leave just 17.16% for League One and 11.69% for League Two.

Instead the EFL have made two initial proposals to fix the distribution factor at either the 2016/17 levels of 68.51% for the Championship, 18.7% for League One and 12.79% for League Two, or move to a new split of 66.66% for the Championship, 20% in League One and 13.34% in League Two.

To offset the losses Championship clubs would make, the EFL proposed that every club would retain 80% of its own income from domestic streaming on iFollow, whilst the EFL would centrally pay for the costs of Goal Line Technology and Select Group 2 Match Officials.

Changes would come into force in the 2019/20 season, with the EFL considering feedback from clubs at their next meeting.

EFL Chief Executive Shaun Harvey said : "Today was about setting the scene and providing clubs with the relevant information so that the discussion can develop over the course of the coming weeks and months.



"I would hope there is enough initial detail within the draft proposals for clubs to be able to start having the necessary conversations with their Boards and colleagues so we can start to understand if making a change is going to be possible."
