Rival clubs say relegation is insufficient for City
Manchester City faces increasing pressure from Premier League rivals to receive severe sanctions after being found guilty of over 100 charges of financial rule breaches, including a “disguised funding scheme” and “sham commercial deals” that inflated income by £900 million between 2009 and 2018. While the league's independent commission is set to determine City’s punishment, many clubs argue that a relegation for one season would be insufficient, demanding harsher measures such as prolonged suspension or expulsion. A sanctions hearing and appeal process are underway, with a final decision expected by the end of January, amid concerns over legal costs and potential lawsuits from rival clubs.
