The Premier League has referred Manchester City to an independent commission following alleged breaches of financial regulations.
These alleged breaches stretch back as far as the 2009-10 season.
City are said to have breached rules relating to providing accurate financial information, specifically in respect to the club’s revenue, including sponsorship revenue and operating costs, between the seasons of 2009-10 and 2017-18, as well as remuneration details for managers and players between the 2009-10 and 2015-16 campaigns.
