La Liga president drops huge claim on what he's heard regarding Man City's FFP charges

La Liga president drops huge claim on what he's heard regarding Man City's FFP charges

La Liga president Javier Tebas has broken his silence after City's hearing date was finalised.

La Liga president Javier Tebas has commented on what he has been told about Manchester City's 115 charges of breaking Premier League financial rules.

The hearing into those 115 charges is set to begin on Monday - 19 months since City were originally charged in February 2023.

Among the charges include a failure to provide accurate information, failing to provide accurate details for player and manager payments, and a failure to comply with profit and sustainability rules (PSR).

All charges relate to a nine-season time period, between 2009 and 2018.

The case largely revolves around purportedly 'leaked' documents and emails from City executives. They were published by German outlet Der Spiegel, who claimed that they showed the club had inflated sponsorship revenue.

City have strenuously denied all 115 charges, and say they have 'irrefutable evidence' that will prove their innocence.

The London Evening Standard claimed on Thursday that a points deduction would be the most likely punishment if the reigning Premier League champions were to be found guilty of any charges, although potential relegation could still be an option.

It is as yet unknown as to when the verdict will be delivered, although it is believed to be unlikely to arrive before the end of the current season. Either party - City or the Premier League - would then have the opportunity to appeal the verdict if it is deemed necessary.

Now, La Liga president Tebas - who has consistently taken aim at City since their charges were announced - has made a major claim surrounding other clubs in the Premier League.

He claims to have spoken to several clubs on the matter, and said (quotes via Goal): "I have spoken with many Premier League clubs, and most of them understand that City should be sanctioned.

"They were once acquitted by the CAS [Court of Arbitration for Sport] for a formal matter."

It is not the first time Tebas has made significant comment about City's case.

He claimed in March 2023 that the Premier League had lost 'credibility' by not dealing with the situation earlier.

He said: "PSG and Man City were sanctioned by UEFA. Man City were banned from European competition. It was CAS that overruled and lifted the ban.

"That dates back to 2017, and we have still not moved on.

"The Premier League is the best competition in the world but it is important to manage its reputation in the economic sphere."
