Man City are set to be handed this unbelievable and harsh punishment if they are found guilty of breaking rules. A punishment of this magnitude has never been given out before! š³
Manchester City are preparing for what is being referred to as the “sports trial of the century” as they face accusations of breaching 115 financial regulations, potentially leading to significant penalties if found guilty.
An independent hearing will begin on Monday to review the charges. Several other Premier League clubs, affected by City’s dominance, are hoping for severe consequences for Pep Guardiola’s side.
This case pits the league against its most dominant club over the past ten years.
According to The Standard, expulsion from the Premier League is one of the possible outcomes if City are found guilty. A decision is anticipated before the season concludes, which could place City in a precarious position.
Recently, the Premier League has intensified its efforts to penalize clubs violating financial rules, with Everton and Nottingham Forest already receiving point deductions. However, the accusations against City are far more severe, and the punishment could be much harsher.
While being relegated to the Championship is a possibility, it’s more likely that City will face a significant points deduction and a fine.
Reports indicate that the club could face a 30-point deduction, which would be unprecedented in Premier League history.
Although it seems unlikely that their titles will be revoked, a substantial points penalty could overshadow their recent achievements, including four consecutive league titles and their current standing as favorites this season.
