English champions have case to answerDrawn out process angering fans of rival clubsPremier League preparing to take actionWHAT HAPPENED?
The reigning champions of England, who savoured a historic Treble triumph in 2022-23, are aware that serious questions are being asked of them off the field. It was revealed in 2023 that City’s financial business is set to fall under the microscope following a five-year investigation – with charges dating back to 2009.

Other Premier League clubs have been stung by FFP penalties, with Everton already taking one 10-point deduction this season. They have been informed that they are under investigation again, along with Nottingham Forest, and are preparing to enter into another legal battle with English football’s rule makers.
DID YOU KNOW?
Supporters at Goodison Park, the City Ground and far beyond Merseyside and the East Midlands have questioned why their cases are seemingly being rushed through – ahead of rule changes in August 2024 – when the likes of City and Chelsea are seemingly allowed to spend as much as they want before any action is taken.

Premier League CEO Richard Masters has sought to address that issue, but has stopped short of revealing when City’s date with destiny will come. He says “I can” understand the frustration of Everton and Forest fans, but added on City’s case: "There is a date but I can't tell you when it is."
