Man City may not be even be accepted into EFL if relegated from Premier League

Manchester City would not be guaranteed a spot in the EFL if alleged financial fair play breaches bring about their relegation from the Premier League.

Reigning top-flight champions City have been hit with multiple charges and accused of more than 100 breaches, relating to activities between 2009 and 2018. An independent commission is due to rule on the findings, though the club will be unable to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, something which saw them avoid a ban following previous charges brought by UEFA.

A number of City's rivals are reportedly keen for them to be relegated from the Premier League if the charges are upheld. However, there would be no requirement for the EFL to accept the demoted club if that ends up happening.
