Premier League

The Premier League is the top tier of professional football (soccer) in England. Established in 1992, it features 20 teams that compete annually for the championship title. The league operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the English Football League (EFL) Championship, meaning the lowest-performing teams are relegated to the lower division, while the best performers from the lower division are promoted. Matches are primarily played from August to May, and the Premier League is known for its high level of competition, international player recruitment, and substantial financial investments. It is one of the most popular and widely viewed football leagues in the world, attracting a global audience and significant broadcasting revenue. The Premier League’s structure, including its emphasis on parity among its teams, contributes to its reputation as a highly competitive and exciting league.
