Saracens Rugby Club, who beat Exeter Chiefs in the 2019 Premiership Final, have been fined £5 million - and they've also been hit with a 35 point deduction - for breaching the salary cap. 

Gallagher Premiership rugby have updated the league table and Saracens sit bottom of the pile with minus 26 points.

Saracens say they're disappointed with the 'heavy-handed sanctions' and will appeal against all disciplinary panel's findings. The club released an official statement earlier today. You can ready it here: https://www.saracens.com/club-statement-salary-cap/
