Manchester City verdict remains unpublished after reported commission finding
BBC Sport reports, citing unnamed sources, that an independent commission found the club guilty of most of 115 alleged financial-rule breaches. The written judgment and any sanctions have not been released.
An independent commission has reportedly found Manchester City guilty of most of the 115 financial-rule charges brought by the Premier League, BBC Sport reports, citing unnamed sources. The allegations concern the period from 2009 to 2018.
The commission has not published its written judgment, and the reported finding has not been officially confirmed. The report does not identify which charges were upheld.
City have denied wrongdoing. In a statement, the club said the Premier League process remained ongoing, with significant elements still to be completed, and criticised the leak of information.
No sanctions have been announced. The commission’s options include a points deduction, a financial penalty or removal from the Premier League, but none is a settled outcome.
An appeal is expected if City are found guilty. Its timing and outcome are unknown, leaving the case’s next steps unclear until the commission publishes its judgment.
