Good news for Liverpool and a major blow for Manchester City as their appeal has been rejected. The English FA has upheld 115 charges against Pep Guardiola’s side for violating Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations. The club now faces a potential ban from PGMOL, putting the future of the Premier League giants in serious jeopardy.

There’s a significant possibility that Manchester City may not escape their legal issues unscathed, much to the delight of Liverpool and other Premier League supporters.

 

Currently, City is at the top of the English Premier League but is ranked 19th in the Champions League standings after a draw with Inter Milan. They are facing 130 charges related to violations of Financial Fair Play regulations. If found guilty of financial wrongdoing, they could face severe penalties, including relegation.

 

Consequently, Sami Mokbel from the Daily Mail has reported that agents for City’s key players are already looking for ways to protect their clients.

 

Mokbel stated: “If City are found guilty of the most serious charges, the Premier League could impose sanctions leading to the champions losing their top-flight status. Agents are preparing for every possibility to ensure their players are protected.”

 

If Manchester City were to be relegated, players’ loyalty would likely be tested, and the club’s salary structure would be scrutinized.

 

Rivals like Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United could see this as a chance to acquire talent from the potentially demoted team.

 

The main question is whether Pep Guardiola’s squad has solid evidence of their innocence. Until clarity emerges, agents are strategizing, and players—along with the rest of the Premier League—are paying close attention.

 

In other developments, an ESPN analyst has expressed concern for Luis Diaz’s mental health following Liverpool’s victory over AC Milan.
