Rio Ferdinand believes Pep Guardiola has been told in no uncertain terms that Manchester City will be cleared of their Premier League charges.
Earlier this week, the reigning champions were accused of more than 100 breaches of financial rules between 2009 and 2018. The bombshell came after a four-year investigation, with bosses at the Etihad confident they have nothing to hide.
Guardiola faced the music on Friday, when he became the first public-facing figure to answer questions on the investigation. And the legendary boss came out swinging in a fiery press conference, where he attempted to turn the spotlight back on their top-flight rivals.
