Man City deve argumentar na apelação que os £830 milhões em patrocínios vieram do governo de Abu Dhabi e não dos proprietários

A Sky Sports News relata que uma comissão independente concluiu que o Manchester City violou as regras financeiras da Premier League ao disfarçar £830,69 milhões de financiamento dos proprietários como receitas de patrocínio entre 2009 e 2018. A comissão rejeitou a explicação apresentada pelos advogados do clube, que nega qualquer irregularidade e planeja recorrer antes do prazo de sexta-feira.

An independent commission has found that City broke Premier League financial rules by disguising £830.69m of owner funding as sponsorship income. City's lawyers argued during the 2024 hearing that the funding had come from the Abu Dhabi government, but this was rejected by the commission. In their judgement the commission "concluded that it was an explanation that the club had concocted well after the event in an attempt to conceal the realities of the Disguised Funding Scheme". Manchester City is majority owned by Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan's Newton Investment and Development LLC. Sheikh Mansour is a member of the ruling family of Abu Dhabi and he is the vice president and deputy prime minister of the United Arab Emirates. Manchester City continue to deny any wrongdoing and plan to appeal before Friday's deadline. #football #premierleague #mancity ► For the latest developments on this story: https://qrcode.skysports.com/skysports/topstories ► For the latest transfer news: https://qrcode.skysports.com/skysports/TransferCentre More from Sky Sports on YouTube: ► Sky Sports: http://bit.ly/SkySportsSub ► Sky Sports Boxing: http://bit.ly/SSBoxingSub ► Sky Sports Cricket: http://bit.ly/SubscribeSkyCricket ► Sky Sports Darts: https://bit.ly/SubSkySportsDarts ► Sky Sports Football: http://bit.ly/SSFootballSub ► Sky Sports F1: http://bit.ly/SubscribeSkyF1 ► Sky Sports Golf: https://bit.ly/SubscribeSkySportsGolf ► Sky Sports Premier League: https://bit.ly/SubscribeSkySportsPL ► Sky Sports Retro: http://bit.ly/SkySportsRetroSub ► Sky Sports WSL: https://bit.ly/SubscribeSkySportsWSL ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@skysportsnews ► X: https://x.com/SkySportsNews ► Website: https://www.skysports.com ► To enquire about licensing Sky Sports content, you can find out more here: https://www.skysports.com/more-sports/news/31754/11434270/license-sky-sports-footage
