Manchester City has been found guilty of breaching financial rules across a nine-season period, with the club facing potential severe sanctions. The Premier League announced the verdict, revealing that the club was found guilty of all charges related to serious financial rule violations. The case, which has become the biggest scandal in Premier League history, alleges that City used "sham contracts" to build its empire, with financial wrongdoing worth over $1.7 billion.
Former Manchester United legend Roy Keane condemned the verdict, urging players to "stick their Premier League medals in the bin," calling the club's actions a betrayal of the sport. The club's CEO has called the ruling based on a "conspiracy theory" and vowed to appeal the decision. The case has sparked intense debate, with critics questioning the integrity of the club and its owners.
The ruling has led to calls for punishment from figures like Ian Wright, who joined Keane in criticizing the club's actions. As the club faces potential sanctions, the situation remains under scrutiny, with the Premier League set to determine the next steps.
