Manchester City have once again been charged with misrepresenting their financial position.
After appealing the UEFA decision in 2019, the Blues felt vindicated when the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) sided with their case and completely overturned a two-year ban from the Champions League. The club have welcomed an independent commission to look into the Premier League charges, hoping for a similar outcome.
But the Blues were fined by CAS for not co-operating fully with the original investigation, and have been similarly accused by the Premier League. From the little that has been made publicly available of the investigation, it is clearly possible to see that those charges at the very least could stick.
