Premier League clubs approve changes to associated party transaction rules
The proposed changes came into play after an independent tribunal found some aspects of the APT rules to be unlawful following Manchester City’s lawsuit.
Stricken Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba may be unable to play due to a hamstring injury, but the Frenchman isn’t letting anything come between himself and his ‘love’, as is evident from a video he uploaded on his Twitter profile.

Pogba pulled up clutching his hamstring in United’s UEFA Champions League opener against Basel on 12 September and has been out of action since then.
The club are yet to confirm a return date for the 24-year-old midfielder, but manager Jose Mourinho recently admitted that the club-record signing is a “long-term injury casualty”, which would cast a cloud over Pogba’s participation for the month of October at least.
The lanky midfielder has been working hard on recovering and recently uploaded a video of himself in which he is seen channeling his inner ‘Bruce Lee’.

Despite Pogba’s loss, United have continued their blistering start to the season and are currently level on points with leaders Manchester City in the Premier League table, second only due to a marginally inferior goal difference.
They are in pole position to top their UEFA Champions League group as well, having won both their games so far.
However, once the current International break concludes, the Red Devils travel to arch-rivals Liverpool for a crunch clash, one that will test their title credentials and Pogba’s presence will be keenly felt at Anfield.
A busy October awaits Mourinho’s men, for they play a total of five games across all competitions (Liverpool, Benfica, Huddersfield, Swansea and Tottenham Hotspur), of which all but one will be away from home.
