Manchester City could face a devastating 70-80 point deduction and possible relegation if found guilty of breaching Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations. With a hearing set for September, the club may be penalized significantly, threatening their Premier League status and future in top competitions.
Manchester City could face a massive points deduction and potential relegation if found guilty of breaching Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules. The club is under investigation for 115 alleged violations, with a hearing set to begin in September.
An unnamed Premier League executive suggested that a penalty between 70 and 80 points is being considered, which would almost certainly see the club relegated to the Championship. Such a deduction would drastically impact Manchester City, who finished last season with 91 points, far ahead of the relegation zone.
The investigation could take up to 10 weeks, and Premier League chief Richard Masters has stressed the importance of resolving the matter swiftly. If found guilty, Manchester City may face not only relegation but also significant financial penalties, potentially over several seasons, jeopardizing their future in top-tier competitions like the Champions League.
The club, which has dominated English football in recent years, strongly denies any wrongdoing. However, the severity of the potential penalties highlights the gravity of the charges and the high stakes involved in this ongoing investigation.
