Manchester City has appealed against the decision of an independent commission, which found the club guilty of all charges related to breaching Premier League financial rules. The club described the ruling as crucial for the future of football and claims it contains obvious legal errors. ANSA ↗
The case concerns an extensive investigation into the financial operations of the English club. According to available reports, published documents pointed to money flows between Manchester City and other clubs in the transfer market. The investigation also raised questions about which teams benefited from these financial flows. BBC News ↗
The Portuguese computer hacker Rui Pinto played an important role in the case. He published the documents through the Football Leaks project. His witness protection is set to end, despite concerns that he could be murdered. Lawyers have warned of serious consequences of this decision. BBC News ↗
The case also has a political dimension. British Prime Minister Andy Burnham faces calls to disclose details of his meetings with the club's owners and with the Abu Dhabi United Group. At the same time, the United Arab Emirates has warned that the scale of its investments in the United Kingdom may depend on how severe the sanction against Manchester City is.
If the club were to face relegation, England head coach Thomas Tuchel did not rule out selecting players who play outside the top division. The appeal and any possible punishment will be decided in further proceedings.
