Man City guilty of all Premier League financial charges – but what happens next?

  • Manchester City have been found guilty of the majority of 115 charges concerning breaches of the Premier League's rules between 2009 and 2018 – including all financial charges.
  • The charges stem from a four-year investigation into allegations that the club failed to provide accurate financial information and breached Profit and Sustainability Rules between 2009 and 2018.
  • Manchester City have insisted that the process remains ongoing with key elements left to complete, maintaining their long-standing stance of denying any financial wrongdoing.
  • Manchester City have until Friday, October 2 to appeal the verdict, which would initiate a review by a new three-person commission appointed by judicial panel chair Murray Rosen KC.
  • An appeal will temporarily delay the application of any potential sanctions or points deductions, with the outcome of the appeal panel serving as the final ruling because the case cannot be taken to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
