The Premier League are leading the charge for Manchester City’s punishment to be announced before the verdict of their appeal, a new report has surprisingly claimed.
City, lest anyone forget, were found guilty by an independent commission of breaking more than 100 Premier League regulations, including all those relating to inaccurate reporting of their finances. As England’s top flight emphatically put it, City’s success between 2009 and 2018 was built upon “sham contracts,” “sham agreements” and “sham commercial deals.”
