An independent commission has ruled that Manchester City are guilty of breaking the majority of the 115 financial charges brought against them by the Premier League, following a process lasting more than two years. Reaction poured in from across football: former City midfielder Rodri said he still believes in the club's 'innocence', City fans grappled with the verdict, and pundits debated possible sanctions, including points deductions, relegation or stripped titles. Premier League clubs are reportedly seeking legal advice on potential compensation claims stemming from the case. The ruling marks one of the most consequential financial fair play verdicts in English football history, with the scale of potential sanctions—ranging from fines to relegation—still to be determined, and appeals from City considered likely.
