Man City FFP: ‘Relegation to Championship’ would be one possible ‘sanction’ in PL ‘settlement’ – expert
A football finance expert claims Manchester City could be “relegat to the Championship” even if they reach a “settlement” with the Premier League.
‘Even if the most serious charges are not proven, however, there is an expectation. That City will have to be punish on non compliance given that Premier League. Regulations demand that clubs participate in investigations. This was what they were primarily punish for in the controversial Court of Arbitration case of June 2020. That saw an initial Uefa Champions League ban overturn due to technicalities.
‘While a minority within the Premier League are pushing for expulsion if the most serious charges proven, that is currently seen as an unlikely possibility. Such an outcome would require a special shareholders meeting and vote of 15.
‘That is not expect to be a situation witness this season, however, due to the near certainty that one of the sides will appeal the outcome.’
Despite this, the report claimed expulsion is ‘unlikely’. https://ufabet999.appbut Man City will at least ‘have to be punishe on non-compliance’.
Despite this, former Everton chairman Keith Wyness claims expulsion. Would be ‘on the table’ even if Man City agree on a ‘settlement’ with the Premier League. He also believes the final verdict could be delay until 2026.
“That would have to be seen to be workable for the other teams in the league. Of course, if City are found guilty.
“If they are, and the evidence is rock-solid, there has to be a sanction. It could well be one relegation to the Championship.
I’m hoping this can be put to bed and we can move forward as a unifie Premier League.”
Man City have insist on their innocence, but if they are found guilty. They could be given a huge fine, transfer ban. Points deduction or even expulsion from the Premier League.
