Manchester City have raised the stakes in their battle with the Premier League, taking the unusual step of writing to the 19 other top-flight clubs to accuse the Premier League of “misleading” them.
On Monday, City and the league claimed victory in a case relating to rules over associated party transactions (APT). While City pointed to aspects of the rules being declared unlawful in the verdict by an arbitration tribunal, the league noted that the broader verdict endorsed “the overall objectives, framework and decision-making” of the APT system.
