Man City chief says new £700m record is result of nothing "out of the ordinary"

Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano has insisted the Blues have reached the pinnacle of European football without “doing anything out of the ordinary.”

A leaked UEFA report claims City were paid £30million by a mystery figure from the United Arab Emirates in two instalments over a decade ago to circumvent FFP regulations.
