In July 2020, Manchester City were investigated by UEFA for potential Financial Fair Play (FFP) breaches and Jose Mourinho labelled the investigation as a 'disgrace'. At the time, he was in charge at Tottenham competing with Pep Guardiola's side for the Premier League title.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) later overturned charges on City. The reigning champions now face fresh pressure; they have have charged by the Premier League over financial breaches across nine seasons (2009/10 to 2017/18), in a statement released on Monday.
It comes after an investigation into City spanning four years. For now, it remains to be seen whether any of these breaches for the period stated will be upheld by the commission or if any punishment will follow.
