Man City has assured former England star Paul Robinson that they have not breached any financial rules and are confident they will be exonerated. In a recent episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, Robinson mentioned that City’s legal team, considered the best in the world, are prolonging the process by delaying the independent commission hearing scheduled for later this year.
The Premier League charged City with 115 financial breaches over nine seasons, an investigation that began in 2018. Despite the looming threat of relegation or title-stripping, City vehemently denies any wrongdoing. Robinson emphasized that the club’s achievements should not be tainted for the players or fans.
City’s legal battle is expected to be protracted, with Robinson suggesting that the club is confident of their innocence and willing to fight the charges. Speculation about potential punishments aside, City maintains their stance that they have done nothing wrong.
Robinson also expressed his disapproval of stripping clubs of titles and trophies, emphasizing that these accolades should remain with the players and fans. The ongoing saga surrounding City’s financial accusations will continue, with no quick resolution in sight. City remains steadfast in their determination to contest the allegations.
On a separate note, Man City is reportedly eyeing a £100 million-rated star for their squad. For more exclusive Manchester City news, follow Football Insider on Facebook or join their new WhatsApp Channel for instant updates directly to your phone.
