Former Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini has offered his view on the club’s Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) charges.
The blue half of Manchester have enjoyed unrivalled success over the past decade-and-a-half, winning eight Premier League titles — including the last four and six of the last seven — the Champions League and a host of other major honours.
However, the club is operating under the dark cloud of battling against 115 different charges of PSR breaches dating as far back as 2009.
As well as Pep Guardiola, that takes in the managerial reigns of Roberto Mancini, Mark Hughes and, of course, Pellegrini.
The latter was at the club upon the arrival of the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Fernandinho, Raheem Sterling and Nicolas Otamendi.
Pellegrini was asked for his view on the club’s PSR situation during an in-depth interview with BBC Sport, but gave a rather cryptic response.
“I am sure the fans of Manchester City are really happy with the way the club works and the way they play and the trophies they have won during all these years,” said Pellegrini.
“Always you have criticism about a lot of things.”
Man City’s hearing in regards to their FFP charges is expected to begin in autumn of this year, but could even be held off as late as summer 2025 (per BBC Sport).
