This is the single biggest claim made by one club against another in Premier League history.
Four years on from being deducted points for breaching PSR rules, Everton continue to be punished for those indiscretions.
There is a feeling that the latest ruling makes it a triple jeopardy for one single sanction - the points deduction they received at the time, the financial implications of merit money reducing by dropping down the table and now this claim from Burnley.
Everton's hierarchy have reacted with astonishment at the panel's decision to award this compensation claim to the Clarets and feel the judgement is flawed and one that is hugely excessive.
While this took place on the watch of former owner Farhad Moshiri, the Friedkin Group are now having for fork out significant sum of money for the claim against the football club, and it is not known whether any contingencies were put in place to claim the sum back from the Iranian's business.
Nevertheless, it is understood this ruling has no impact on the current ownership's transfer plans for the summer or direction of the club. In fact, sources have said it will embolden them to drive Everton forward and back towards the top echelons of the Premier League.
There is a feeling, though, that the amount awarded is grossly unfair in comparison to the £10m fine handed to Chelsea in March after they admitted making £47m in secret payments to unregistered agents and the £5.5m punishment given to West Ham in 2007 over the transfers of Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano.
Tuesday's news came out of the blue as Everton were not given a date by which a ruling should be handed down - the same principle which applies to Manchester City and their 115 charges for allegedly breaching financial rules.
Everton have immediately appealed the decision, but feel it could potentially have huge implications for Premier League football as a whole if they are not successful.
Everton have been told they must pay Burnley £35m over the impact of breaches of the Premier League's financial rules.
The case - heard by a Premier League commission - relates to the 2021-22 season, when Everton were found to have broken profit and sustainability regulations (PSR) over a three-year period.
Burnley argued the breach impacted their chances of staying in the Premier League, and sought compensation for the losses associated with being relegated.
The Clarets have been awarded £26m in damages and a further £9m in interest.
In a statement Everton said: "Everton Football Club is surprised and angered by the decision of a Premier League Independent Disciplinary Commission to order a compensation payment to Burnley Football Club in relation to Everton's PSR breach in June 2022.
"Everton has appealed the decision and is clear in its belief the ruling is fundamentally flawed in both law and fact.
"The Club does not recognise the findings of the panel in determining Burnley's relegation from the Premier League in May 2022 was caused by a sporting advantage gained by Everton due to a breach of Profit & Sustainability Rules, for which a substantive sporting sanction has already been received.
"This ruling sets a dangerous and unworkable precedent for English football, given it is constructed on a principle that a club can be in breach of financial rules at any point in a financial year.
"Everton believes the panel's ruling misrepresents the clear evidence presented by its legal representatives and that an appeal will be successful.
"The Club is confident of its ongoing PSR compliance and has also obtained confirmation from the Premier League of its clear position that this ruling should not be the cause of any future PSR sanction. Evertonians can be assured that ownership are focused, with strengthened resolve, on delivering their vision of returning Everton to the top echelon of English football.
"No further comment will be made on this matter until the appeal process has been successfully concluded."

The Switzerland international started up front but could not find his way onto the scoresheet in their 1-1 draw with Australia.
He was the only Claret to play over the weekend but he will be joined by several of his other club team-mates at the tournament: Sweden's Hjalmar Ekdal, DR Congo's Axel Tuanzebe, South Africa's Lyle Foster and Tunisia's Hannibal Mejbri.
Here is a reminder of the groups the Burnley players are in and who they will face, so you can keep an eye out for them once the World Cup begins on 11 June:
Zeki Amdouni, Switzerland - Group B: Qatar, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Canada
Hjalmar Ekdal, Sweden - Group F: Tunisia, Netherlands and Japan
Axel Tuanzebe, DR Congo - Group K: Portugal, Colombia and Uzbekistan
Lyle Foster, South Africa - Group A: Mexico, Czech Republic and South Korea
Hannibal Mejbri, Tunisia - Group F: Sweden, Japan and Netherlands

With all 48 World Cup squads now confirmed, we look at how they shape up and compare with each other leading into the tournament.
Which clubs have the most players?
Looking just at the 20 clubs that made up the 2025-26 Premier League, only this season's top three have more players at the World Cup than Conference League winners Crystal Palace (12).
Including players out on loan over the season, Sunderland remarkably have as many representatives on the global stage as Chelsea and Liverpool (11), showing just how globe-trotting their recruitment was following promotion last summer.
The majority of Brentford, Everton and Leeds' squads can put their feet up and recharge their batteries for next season, with those clubs sending just four players each.
Image source, Getty ImagesWe asked for your views on which players you think Burnley need to keep if they are to ensure their return to the second tier is a brief one, and who would be the ones to cash in on.
Here are some of your comments:
Ian: Sadly, the better players like Zian Flemming, Jaidon Anthony and Josh Laurent will have opportunities to move on. Players like Lyle Foster and Armando Broja, who have contributed so little this season, may well end up staying. A bit like Mike Tresor.
Oscar: They need to really keep Flemming, Anthony, Hannibal, Josh Cullen, Maxime Esteve, Lesley Ugochukwu and Loum Tchaouna. I would sell Zeki Amdouni, Tresor, Connor Roberts and Joe Worrall.
Gav: We're carrying a big squad, so I'd like to see a number of the peripheral players leave. Spine of the side should be Max Weiss, Esteve, Cullen and Laurent. I'd like to see Anthony and Flemming stay, but I think they'll have their suitors. Broja, Florentino Luis etc can leave as they feel like mercenaries.
Steve: Would love to keep Esteve, but he is class so I fear he will not stay and I wouldn't blame him. Anthony and Hannibal to stay, but they are the only other standouts to me this season. Foster first out the door and Broja to go too, as it was a terrible decision to spend so much on an injury-prone player.
Bob: I'd love to see Esteve, Anthony, Flemming and Hannibal stay. That's not likely for any of them. At this point, I'd settle for a new manager and a team with a bit of fight.
Mark: They need to keep Weiss, Esteve, Bashir Humphreys, Roberts, Ugochukwu, Hannibal, Cullen, Anthony and Flemming. Get rid of everyone else and buy a decent striker.

The next campaign will begin in the Championship with top-flight clubs keen to secure cut-price deals for relegated players.
Which players do you think Burnley need to keep if they are to ensure their return to the second tier is a brief one? And who would be the ones to cash in on?

Image source, Getty ImagesSeason score out of 10 and overriding emotion?
0/10. I just feel so very numb at the moment, and very disconnected from football. We seem to have lost our identity completely - even our shirts have turned into a shade of purple now, rather than Claret. I am struggling to see what we are trying to be. Our recruitment has been haphazard, our managerial decisions baffling, and each Premier League campaign has got steadily worse since ALK took over the club, both in terms of points and league positions. "Forever forward" is ALK's new motto for the club: perhaps that is the case in terms of commercial offering, but on the pitch we are going backwards.
Best moment and why
I take absolutely no pleasure in saying this, but Scott Parker leaving his role as head coach. It was becoming an impossible position for him to be in, and the club should have put him and us out of our misery much earlier than this. When that announcement was made, there seemed to be a collective sigh of relief. But what a waste of a season.
Player of season and why
A very close tie between Zian Flemming and Jaidon Anthony - the former for his goals, and the latter for being probably the only player in the squad to show real effort consistently. He seems like one of the few who wants to be here and cares.
Unsung hero and why
Ross Wallace, for stepping up to be caretaker manager of the women's team, and overseeing a title and promotion to WSL2. The only good news of this season.
Biggest disappointment
Pretty much everything about the entire season has been a disappointment, no more so than our pitiful displays in both cup competitions. But one that stung a little was the early injury to Josh Cullen. We missed his leadership skills and talent in the team and, while it may not have caused a disappointment to the overall results, his voice as club captain would have helped bridge that growing disconnection between club and fans.
What needs to change this summer?
The whole club needs to change because we are so very lost at the moment. We need to start again from scratch.
Major hope for next season?
We get our managerial appointment right.

Former Burnley centre-back David Unsworth on BBC Radio Lancashire: "Unfortunately, it is Championship football as we have known for some time now.
"A massive rebuild is needed, not just in terms of trying to bounce back up next season, but by trying to build a team and squad that doesn't need major surgery if they do get promoted.
"We need to decide on who is going to be the manager – how many weeks has it been and nothing has been done? Massive decisions on who is coming, staying or leaving.
"I was thinking if I was a Burnley fan coming to the ground, what would I want? I read the owner's [Alan Pace] programme notes, and he touched on the manager.
"I want something more. I want a clear plan. I want him to come out and demand success. It was all about hard work and desire. That is a given for any player, in any team. You shouldn't even have to ask that.
"I want to see a clear vision, I want to see a strategy out in place, I want to see great recruitment. I want to see this team bounce back up and stay there.
"I just want more – these fans have been brilliant all season. They have stuck by the team despite all the losses.
"I think they deserve a lot more than what they're getting.
"They have got to get somebody in and there are no guarantees, it doesn't matter who it is.
"Someone who the fans can get right behind, someone with real stature that can come into this great football club and have an immediate reaction and also attract top players not only to get them up, but to keep them up when they get back into the Premier League."

Now the curtain has come down on the 2025-26 Premier League campaign, here is my end-of-season review - with a look back to what I predicted in August.
Prediction: 20th
Another joyless season in the Premier League for Burnley, doomed to relegation under the now sacked Scott Parker, long before the drop was officially confirmed.
Burnley's top brass were more ambitious in the markets, signing experienced players such as Kyle Walker, but one look at Armando Broja's injury record should have told them to keep their £20m in their pocket.
What I said in August: "It is a bold transfer strategy, but will it be enough to keep Burnley up? I have my doubts."

There was an error
We asked for your views on Burnley's draw against Wolves on the final day of the Premier League season.
Here are some of your comments:
Alan: This feels different to previous relegations. The lack of fight and direction from management - more than anything else - makes it seem like we are heading for another 50 years in the Football League wilderness.
Mark: At last it's over! Bring on the Championship - the better league.
Steve: Poor season, but so unlucky at times with VAR and several decisions. What was the point of Armando Broja and Lyle Foster? And Florentino Luis for that matter. Kyle Walker should have stepped up more as well.
Robert: Typical. Poor manager and the players lacked effort and talent. It's a shame when they worked so hard to get back into the Premier League.
John: A fighting display in the second half is, hopefully, a sign of things to come. Loum Tchaouna and Lesley Ugochukwu have been rejuvenated since Scott Parker. We are resigned to losing some of our stars but we must retain the core squad. With some coming and goings we can be competitive in the Championship. We must learn from Sunderland about building the foundations of a team that can be competitive in the Premier League, as well, if we make it back.
Steve: Give Mike Jackson at least a full season and get Ashley Barnes on the coaching staff to give them some bite. The Championship is a tough league and completely different to the Premier League. On the upside, no VAR. Football can be fun again.
