Everton claims the competition made up for the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, so they deny any wrongdoing and are certain they will be cleared.
But Burnley, Leeds United, and Leicester City are all preparing to file suit against the Merseyside club for monetary damages should they be proven guilty.
