City is confronting a staggering 115 charges of breaching Financial Fair Play regulations and may encounter severe repercussions should they be proven guilty following a trial. Sport finance specialist Rob Wilson suggests they could face expulsion from the English top-flight immediately, although they might opt for a compromise by agreeing to a deduction in points.

Following the point deductions imposed on Everton and Nottingham Forest this season, there have been demands for City to receive a significant penalty. Everton initially faced a 10-point deduction, which was later reduced to six, while Forest received a four-point deduction for breaching regulations.

Speaking to Grosvenor Sport, Wilson remarked, “There is technically no limit to the punishment Manchester City could face, they could look to Saracens in rugby union and see 30 points and an immediate relegation. However, I cannot envisage the Premier League winning a case against Man City that would relegate them, they might agree on a 20-point deduction and could still end up qualifying for the Champions League.”

The resolution of City’s case is anticipated to be postponed until later in the year, with a lengthy period expected before a final verdict is reached. If found guilty, the reigning European champions are likely to appeal any punishment handed down to them.
