Man City chairman sends 'blunt' message over Premier League charges as Liverpool watch on

Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak has rejected assertions that the treble winners have financially strong-armed their way to success.

City picked up the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup in a stellar season for Pep Guardiola’s men, but the success arrived under the cloud of 115 charges levelled at them by the Premier League earlier this year over alleged breaches of the League’s profit and sustainability regulations over more than a decade.

Keeping up with City has been one of the biggest challenges for Liverpool and their owners Fenway Sports Group in recent years, with the Reds’ own success and ability to generate bigger revenues still outstripped by the Manchester side, which has been owned by Sheikh Mansour and the City Football Group since 2008.
