Man City expects Premier League fight to last years

Manchester City anticipates a lengthy legal process if found guilty of the numerous financial charges brought against it by the Premier League. Reports suggest an independent panel has upheld most of the over 100 charges, which accuse the club of providing misleading financial information between 2009 and 2018. The club has consistently denied these allegations and stated its position remains unchanged. Should a guilty verdict be reached, City plans to appeal, a process that could extend for months. The Premier League initiated its investigation in February 2023. Former manager Pep Guardiola and player Rodri have both publicly maintained the club's innocence.
