Manchester City has published an official statement following the independent commission's ruling that deemed the club guilty of violating financial regulations on 114 out of 115 counts.
According to The Athletic, this verdict is part of a significant investigation that began after the allegations were made in February 2023. At this point, specific sanctions against the club have yet to be determined, and Manchester City is expected to launch an appeal against the decision.
A representative from Manchester City commented on the situation:
The Premier League process is ongoing, with significant elements still to be completed, and it is subject to strict confidentiality.
In light of this, Manchester City Football Club's position remains unchanged and aligns with the club's statement from February 2023.
The club has diligently complied with procedural norms for the past eight years, expecting that the Premier League’s board and hierarchy would act as an independent, impartial, and fair regulator, free from any bias.
