Manchester City Banned From UEFA For Two Years!
The reigning Premier League champion Manchester City has been fined 30m euros (£25m) and banned from competing in two seasons 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 after been found to have committed 'serious breaches' of Uefa's club licensing and financial fair play regulation.
The decision is subjected to appeal to the court of Arbitration for sports.
The Premier League club said they are 'disappointed but not surprised' by the prejudicial decision and will appeal.
They added in a statement 'The club has always anticipated the ultimate need to seek out an independent body and process to impartially consider the comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence in support of its position.
"The subsequent flawed and consistently leaked Uefa process he oversaw has meant that there was little doubt in the result that he would deliver. The club has formally complained to the Uefa disciplinary body, a complaint which was validated by a CAS ruling."Simply put, this is a case initiated by Uefa, prosecuted by Uefa and judged by Uefa. With this prejudicial process now over, the club will pursue an impartial judgment as quickly as possible and will therefore, in the first instance, commence proceedings with the Court of Arbitration for Sport at the earliest opportunity."
