Man City found guilty of 114 FFP breaches

Manchester City have been found guilty of 114 out of 115 Financial Fair Play charges, according to information shared anonymously with The Athletic. The club now faces unprecedented disciplinary measures, ranging from fines or formal reprimands to potential expulsion from the Premier League. A points deduction is viewed as the most likely outcome and could be applied immediately or retroactively, potentially affecting past titles.

City reiterated their long‑standing position, stressing they have cooperated fully for eight years under the assumption of an impartial regulatory process. The charges stem from alleged financial irregularities committed between 2009 and 2018, uncovered after Der Spiegel published leaked internal documents in 2018.

With the Premier League process still confidential and ongoing, the club is preparing an appeal while awaiting clarity on the sanctions that could reshape the modern era of English football.
