  • LaLiga president Javier Tebas has criticised the Premier League's “damaging” and protracted handling of financial charges against Manchester City, which have been ongoing for over three years.
  • Manchester City were accused in February 2023 of more than 100 alleged breaches of financial rules, which the club strenuously denies.
