Manchester City has reportedly been found guilty of all but one of the 115 financial charges brought against it by the Premier League, according to a report from Al Jazeera. The charges, first announced in February 2023, relate to allegations that the club breached the league's financial rules over a period of several seasons.
The Premier League's investigation into City's finances spanned multiple years before charges were formally filed. The case centered on allegations concerning the accuracy of the club's financial disclosures, including matters related to sponsorship income, player and manager remuneration, and cooperation with league investigators.
An independent commission was convened to hear the case, with proceedings held largely in private. The scale of the charges, covering financial reporting across nine Premier League seasons, made it one of the most significant disciplinary cases in the competition's history.
City has consistently denied wrongdoing throughout the proceedings and is expected to have the option to appeal any adverse findings. The Premier League has not publicly detailed potential sanctions, which under league rules could range from fines to points deductions, depending on the commission's findings.
Further details of the panel's full written decision and any sanctions were not confirmed in available reporting.
