Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano has insisted the Blues have reached the pinnacle of European football without “doing anything out of the ordinary.”
On a day when the Treble winners announced a bumper new sleeve sponsorship deal with cryptocurrency exchange company OKX, they found themselves under more scrutiny over the 115 charges laid by the Premier League over alleged financial misconduct.
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. But while Soriano did not address the ongoing legal fight with the Premier League, he did confirm that City generated revenues in excess of £700 million on their way to lifting the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup last season.
