The growing crisis surrounding a number of English clubs who are buckling under the weight of high player wages has moved the PFA to reconsider its previous strong opposition to the idea of salary capping.
Said PFA chief executive Gordon Taylor in a newspaper interview: "If those were the conditions attached to improving clubs' financial situation, we may well approve them.
"The term salary capping is emotive because people think of a maximum wage. But we do not want clubs to be spending more than they have.
"If they started talking about a ceiling on the amount that goes out to players then we would talk about it. We are not against good accounting."
The PFA has also indicated its inability to continue to offer emergency loans to meet the wage bills of struggling clubs.
The English Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) has stated that it is open to the idea of salary caps.
