A new football charter is set to bring in drastic changes to the way the game is run, according to a leaked government paper seen by The Sun.
The charter is reportedly set to bring in new regulations on potential owners, provide an increased role in the running of clubs by fans and lead to the set-up of an independent football regulator.
It is all part of The Football White Paper, which is expected to be published next week, following a Government-commissioned report into the game that took place back in November 2021.
Conservative MP Tracey Crouch had made the case for an independent regulator in her fan-led review of football, which was accepted by then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
