Allegations over Manchester City and their financial dealings have returned to the spotlight after the Premier League charged the club in a move which has rocked and shocked at the Etihad Stadium.
Following a four-year investigation, City have been accused of 100-plus breaches, under four categories, from the 2009/2010 season right through to this season. However, some charges are only relating to particular years and the club have released a punchy statement in response to those claims.
Question marks over similar matters have been raised before. City were, temporarily, expelled from European competitions for breaching FFP regulations in 2019, but that decision was overturned as the club now face up to domestic charges relating to several offences, which the club strongly deny.
