Manchester City found guilty of Premier League financial breaches

Manchester City have been found guilty of all charges relating to serious breaches of the Premier League’s financial rules by an independent commission.   According to Sky Sports, the commission found that City arranged what it described as “sham” contracts with several commercial partners between 2009/10 and 2017/18. The arrangements allegedly formed part of a scheme that artificially increased the club’s reported revenues by about £830 million. The commission also found that the club submitted accounts that concealed the true state of its finances and was significantly in breach of both Premier League and UEFA spending limits. City was also found guilty of failing to co-operate with the Premier League investigation. City to appeal Manchester City has confirmed that it will appeal the commission’s findings. The club has until Friday, October 2, 2026, to lodge its appeal. The club said it was “disappointed and surprised” by the decision and maintained that it was innocent of the allegations. City also argued that the commission’s opinion contained errors of law, principle and fact. Sanction yet to be decided No punishment has been announced at this stage. A separate process will determine the sanctions, while the appeal could affect the final outcome. The case began with the Premier League’s investigation into City and led to more than 100 charges being brought against the club in February 2023. Reuters describes the case as involving alleged breaches dating from the 2009/10 to 2017/18 seasons.
