Manchester City maintains its position as financial case continues
Chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak says the club remains confident it can prove its innocence, as reports of a panel finding remain unconfirmed.
Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak says the club remains confident it can prove its innocence in the Premier League’s case over alleged financial-rule breaches. His comments came after media reports said an independent panel found City guilty of 114 breaches.
In an open letter to supporters on Saturday, Al Mubarak said the process had a long way to run and the club’s confidence was unchanged. City has denied wrongdoing throughout the case.
The reported finding has not been officially confirmed by the Premier League, which declined to comment, citing the confidentiality of the process. The case concerns 115 alleged breaches.
City is expected to appeal, but no formal appeal is reported. Any sanctions remain undecided.
Al Mubarak said his letter had undergone legal checks and urged supporters to read the club’s previous statements on the case.
