Entenda a situação: Manchester City pode ser punido e rebaixado na Premier League

English clubs have faced accusations of violating the Financial Fair Play rules for about five years and are set to be judged in the coming weeks. The alleged irregularities are related to the club’s owner, Qatari Sheikh Mansour, who denies committing any infractions. It is believed that through other investments, the administrator covered up the amount spent on investments, thus bypassing UEFA rules. After months of investigation, the European football governing body suspended the Citizens from playing continental competitions in February 2020, but later overturned the decision. However, in February 2023, the Premier League leveled accusations involving 115 rule violations set by the English league. Both clubs were subsequently relegated at the end of the seasons. Journalist Simon Stoney from the BBC has confirmed that a trial date has been set for City, to be carried out by an independent commission, but the Premier League has not yet provided exact details.
