The former chief investigator for UEFA has suggested that the Premier League have a 'stronger case' against Manchester City than the European governing body did when the Blues were initially banned from competing in Europe for two seasons.
On Monday, the Premier League announced that they had charged City with more than 100 breaches of league rules, with breaches allegedly coming across the last 14 years. Several of the breaches relate to finances, and the Blues - if found guilty - potentially face fines, points deductions and even expulsion.
It comes three years after City were slapped with a two-year ban from European football and a €30million fine by UEFA for breaching their Financial Fair Play regulations back in 2019. However, in 2020, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) overturned the ban from European football, with the club instead forced to pay €10m for failing to cooperate.
