Manchester City faces an uncertain future after being found guilty of breaking Premier League financial rules. The club, owned by the Abu Dhabi-controlled City Football Group, has rejected the verdict and plans to appeal through an independent process that could take up to 12 weeks. sport-tr.bet

Potential sanctions include fines, points deduction, suspension, or even expulsion from the Premier League - a punishment never before handed down to a top-tier English club. If expelled, City could apply for membership in the English Football League's lower divisions. The biggest previous points deduction in the Premier League was 10 points to Everton in 2023 for financial violations.
