Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur – as well as every other Premier League club – will be watching on from the sidelines as Manchester City lock horns with the Premier League
Kieran Maguire and Stefan Borson have agreed it’s ‘unlikely’ that Manchester City and the Premier League will reach a settlement before the 115 charges of Premier League regulations are heard. In February 2023, the English top flight charged its champions with 115 alleged breaches of financial regulations.
These include accusations that the club failed to provide accurate financial information and failed to cooperate with investigations spanning nine seasons (2009/10 to 2017/18). Manchester City strongly deny any wrongdoing and the case is set to be heard by an independent commission later this year.
Speaking on the ‘We’re Not Really Here’ podcast by BBC Radio Manchester, football finance expert Maguire and lawyer Borson, who was once a financial adviser at the Etihad Stadium, were asked whether there’s a chance that the two parties agree on a settlement before the hearing.
