Manchester City issued an official statement on Saturday as president Khaldoon al-Mubarak addressed speculation over alleged Premier League financial rule breaches, seeking to reassure supporters while acknowledging the ongoing process.
According to The Athletic, City had been found guilty of financial breaches on 114 of the 115 charges levelled against the club.
The statement says the Premier League case is far from concluded and that the club’s confidence and determination to prove its innocence remain intact.
It adds that confidentiality restricts comment on the details, and directs readers to previous club communications on the matter in 2023 and 2025.
The message aims to calm fans, stating that despite the surrounding noise nothing has changed and that the team have overcome challenges together before. It also looks ahead to positive moments after the international break.
City could face punishments ranging from a formal warning to expulsion from the Premier League.
