Successful legal actions against Manchester City, in the event the club is found guilty of Premier League financial rule breaches, could be worth more than £200m to clubs in compensation, according to sources with knowledge of the details.
A number of rivals are planning to pursue legal processes, amid the anticipation that City will be found guilty in almost all of the charges relating to their long-running Premier League case over alleged financial rules breaches. At least four clubs preserved their rights to claim compensation surrounding loss of earnings under Section W of the competitions rules.
