Michel Platini exclusive: We’re not out to kill clubs but to help them grow

This is a big season for Michel Platini. As the architect of UEFA’s Financial Fair Play rules, all eyes will be on him when the first penalties are handed out next spring.

Clubs who have lost more than €45m (£38m) over the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons face punishment, ranging from a warning to a ban from European competition.
