Man City’s 115 charges appeal date emerges

A new update has surfaced.

In September, the Premier League announced that City were guilty of 114 charges, thanks to an independent commission's verdict.

The 40-page verdict stated that between 2009 and 2018, City arranged "sham contracts", relying on "sham agreements to artificially inflate the club's revenues and reduce its costs", thereby boosting revenue to £900million.

The eight-time Premier League champions have since appealed the decision, with the Financial Times providing the latest update on when the appeal will be.

As per the report, sanctions will be made early next year if City are unsuccessful in their appeal.

It is also reported that the appeal is set to go ahead in mid-December, expecting to last a "number of days."

Another independent commission will be responsible for the verdict, which will then prompt a punishment towards City if they lose their appeal.

Due to the Premier League rule book, the independent commission is then able to decide on a punishment, which may include the likes of fines, significant points deductions, or even expulsion from the Premier League altogether.
