Manchester City v the Premier League: a timeline
The ruling caps an eight-year case over alleged financial rule breaches and misleading information, with City denying the charges throughout.
- On Friday, reports indicated Manchester City has been found guilty of all but one of the more than 100 financial charges laid by the Premier League.
- These charges, resulting from a four-year investigation, allege financial rule breaches between 2009 and 2018, including artificial inflation of sponsorship deals from Abu Dhabi-linked companies.
- A 12-week independent commission hearing concluded in December after examining allegations, including City's failure to cooperate with the Premier League's investigation.
- Manchester City has denied all allegations, though potential sanctions remain unconfirmed following this verdict, which could prove a seminal moment in English football.
- City may appeal the decision as these charges have cast a shadow over the club's dominance since the 2008 Abu Dhabi United Group takeover.
