The Premier League’s long-awaited hearing into Manchester City’s 115 alleged charges will begin on Monday as a private independent commission will decide the fate of the English champions.
The charges have been hanging over the Manchester outfit’s achievements ever since it was announced and it is a situation the club and their fans want sorted as quickly as possible so they can continue building the future of City.
Man City have been charged with breaking financial fair play rules over 100 times across a nine-year period, which started in 2009 and went on until 2018.
During that period, the Manchester team won the Premier League three times beating Man United twice and Liverpool to the title. If found, guilty those two clubs can feel hard done by as it meant that they missed out due to an unfair playing field.
The Premier League champions have denied all charges and any wrongdoing, as this case is set to gain a lot of media attention once it begins on Monday due to City’s recent success and the implications of a guilty verdict.
The Premier League have been strict on their Profit and Sustainability regulations over the last year with both Everton and Nottingham Forest receiving points deductions for breaching them. City’s case is much larger and punishment for the English giants could be a massive fine, a points deduction or even expulsion from the Premier League.
The latter two would have a big impact on Man City down the line and although people will be eager to hear the outcome of the case, that will not arrive until some stage in 2025.
