Mauricio Pochettino has provided his insights on the ongoing saga involving Manchester City and the prospective penalties they may face after being found guilty on 114 counts out of 115.
The Argentine tactician expressed that the scale of the ruling complicates the issue of determining a fair punishment.
'It's very difficult when you are found guilty on 114 out of 115 charges to decide what the appropriate sanction should be to ensure it's fair.'
Pochettino also highlighted how sanctions have previously varied between clubs in the Premier League.
'Clubs like Nottingham Forest or Everton have breached regulations and received different penalties—whether that's points deductions or fines,' the coach remarked in an ESPN interview.
He raised concerns over how any potential punishment for Manchester City might align with sanctions previously handed down to other clubs for financial breaches.
Indeed, Everton received a points deduction for breaching financial sustainability regulations, while Nottingham Forest also faced similar repercussions.
