The Manchester City has been found guilty on 114 out of the 115 charges brought by the Premier League for breaching the competition's financial regulations between 2009 and 2018. And the sanctions against Manchester City may be quite severe.

As disclosed by The Athletic, the independent commission of the English tournament has concluded the evaluation of the case initiated in February 2023, leaving open penalties ranging from financial fines and point deductions to expulsion from the competition.

The range of punishments set by Rule W.51 of the regulation

The sanctioning options of the independent commission are governed by Rule W.51 of the British entity. The measures range from public warnings and financial compensation to the retroactive loss of points in the seasons under investigation, which could lead to the stripping of league titles won under the management of the Abu Dhabi United Group.

If the immediate deduction of points is applied in the current 2026-2027 season, the measure would alter the leadership of the squad led by Enzo Maresca, a team that has 15 points after winning their first 5 official matches following an expenditure of £450 million in the summer, including the purchase of Enzo Fernández for £125 million.

The precedent with UEFA and the club's appeals process

The Premier League proceedings follow the case opened in February 2020 by UEFA, the body that imposed a two-year ban from European tournaments and a €30 million fine, a penalty later overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) considering the events time-barred. Nonetheless, CAS upheld a £8.8 million fine at that time for lack of cooperation in providing evidence.

The Manchester-based club's board confirmed through an official spokesperson that they will appeal the ruling to the independent appeal bodies set by the English league itself.

The regulatory panel will deliver the final verdict with the corresponding sanctions during the last quarter of 2026. Manchester City will have a period of 14 days to appeal the decision and seek a lighter penalty.
