Manchester City's long-running financial fair play saga continues, according to Sky Sports, with the Premier League's case against the club now moving into an appeal phase.
City were charged in February 2023 with over 100 alleged breaches of Premier League financial regulations, spanning issues around accurate reporting of finances, sponsorship dealings and cooperation with investigators. The case eventually went before an independent commission, with hearings concluding in December 2024.
Sky Sports reports that the process is now shifting to an appeal stage, amid suggestions that the majority of charges may not have gone in the Premier League's favour — though a final outcome has yet to be confirmed publicly.
The case remains one of the most significant in English football's history, given the scale of the allegations and the potential consequences, which could range from points deductions to expulsion depending on findings. Manchester City have consistently denied wrongdoing and maintain they have evidence to prove their compliance.
With the matter now progressing further through football's legal channels, clarity on sanctions — if any — is still awaited.
