Manchester City could reportedly face a range of punishments if they are found to have breached Premier League financial rules - including 'expulsion' from the top flight.
It emerged this morning that, following a four-year investigation by the League, City have been charged with more than 100 alleged rule breaches.
Last season's champions have been under scrutiny by the League for alleged profit and sustainability breaches, the investigation now resulting in charges brought against the club relating to the 2009/10 campaign onwards.
