Man City charged with breaking number of Premier League financial rules

Manchester City have been charged with numerous breaches of financial fair play regulations following a four-year investigation by the Premier League.

Last season's Premier League champions have been under scrutiny by the League for alleged profit and sustainability breaches, the investigation resulting in charges brought against the club for the 2009/10 campaign onwards.

City, who were hit with a ban from European competition by UEFA in February 2020 for FFP breaches before having it overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in July of the same year, have remained under investigation by the Premier League following that decision, the focus being on a number of sponsorship deals and how manager and player remuneration was accounted for.
