(Reuters) - British lawmaker Tracey Crouch expects the Premier League to "push back very, very hard" against her recommendation for the creation of an independent regulator for English football.

Crouch published a report last month which called for parliament to back the creation of a new regulatory body among a series of other recommendations, including a 'transfer tax' to be paid to lower league clubs.
