Premier League Gives Update on Verdict of Man City's 115 Charges

Manchester City faces over 100 financial rule breach charges with no sanction yet as the Premier League awaits the independent commission's decision, says chief executive Richard Masters.

  • The Premier League charged Manchester City in February 2023 with 115 alleged financial rule breaches and referred the case to an independent commission.
  • The charges stem from alleged financial fair play violations between 2009 and 2018, after a 12-week hearing from September to December 2022 before an independent panel.

  • The ongoing Manchester City case remains a significant issue as the 2025–26 season begins this weekend, with defending champions Liverpool set to welcome Bournemouth.
