Portsmouth have been fined by the Premier League for breaching rules and regulations over the course of the season.

The penalty of about £1m relates to a number of issues, including the late payment of wages and transfer fees.

The money will be taken from the south-coast club’s share of TV revenue.

“Portsmouth have been fined for a series of breaches of our rules and regulations during the course of this season,” a spokesman said in The Sun.

Pompey, who have debts of about £65m, were deducted nine points last week after becoming the first Premier League club to enter administration.
