This monumental development has sent shockwaves through the world of soccer, casting a long shadow over the club’s recent history and success, and leaving fans and players alike uncertain of the future.
According to CNN, the Premier League, which is the domestic British division in which City plays, released a statement to disclose the findings of an independent commission investigation.

The statement claimed that the club was guilty of breaching financial regulations well over 100 times between 2009 and 2018.
