The UK's Treasury Committee, which oversees the tax authority HMRC, has urged the body to scrutinize the tax implications of the recent Manchester City verdict, according to BBC Sport.
The call follows findings that Manchester City breached Premier League financial rules, prompting lawmakers to examine whether the case carries broader implications for how the club's finances are taxed.
Scope of scrutiny unclear
The available reporting does not detail what specific tax issues the committee believes may be at stake, nor does it specify a timeline for HMRC to respond to the request.
The Treasury Committee is a parliamentary body responsible for overseeing the UK's financial regulators and tax authority, and its interventions can prompt formal reviews, though they do not themselves carry the force of a tax investigation.
No response from HMRC or Manchester City was included in the available reporting.
