Manchester City found guilty of all Premier League financial charges
An independent commission found Manchester City boosted their income by over £900m through "sham contracts" and inaccurate accounts between 2009-10 and 2017-18. Richard Masters, the Premier League's chief executive, described it as the "most significant" case in the league's history, with relegation a probable punishment. City denies wrongdoing and plans to appeal by Friday's deadline, claiming the decision contains "material errors."
