What is 'Financial Fair Play'?
Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules, set by UEFA, aim to stop clubs spending more money than they earn. High player salaries, like Rashford's, contribute significantly to a club's outgoings. Breaching FFP can lead to penalties, influencing how clubs manage their finances and transfer dealings.
