Prem clubs have unanimously voted for the cap to stay in place.

That means next season will be the tenth year away fans will pay £30 or less to watch their teams on the road.

It is a win for fans of clubs in the top flight but supporters in the rest of the pyramid are calling for the EFL to implement a similar rule.

One fan said: “@EFL Take notes 👍🏼

A total of 953,420 people were at the 380 top-flight matches during the 2024-25 season.
