Manchester City's punishment for breaching Premier League rules should be handed down before the end of this season, senior football figures have told BBC Sport.
The comments reflect growing pressure from within English football for a resolution to the long-running case involving the club.
Calls for a timely resolution
Officials at other clubs have voiced frustration over the extended timeline of the proceedings, arguing that clarity is needed while the current season is still underway rather than after its conclusion.
The case has drawn significant attention across the Premier League given Manchester City's standing as one of the league's most successful clubs in recent seasons.
The available reporting did not specify a timeline for when a decision from the relevant panel might be expected, nor did it include comment from Manchester City in response to the calls.
Any outcome is likely to have significant implications for competitive balance in the league, depending on the scale of sanctions ultimately imposed, if any.
