Everton’s 10-point deduction has caused significant ripples in football, yet Manchester City remains highly optimistic about being cleared of the 115 accusations leveled against them.
Given the extensive nature of the charges against the reigning Premier League and European champions, it’s probable that it will take a few years before the club faces consequences. Nonetheless, there’s a preference from clubs like Liverpool to have the matter resolved before the beginning of the 2024/25 season, as reported by Football Insider.
The expeditious resolution of City’s case is not only crucial for the Premier League but also for the broader football community’s interests.
The current delay in the process seems to stem from the immense volume of paperwork involved, allowing City to continue their pursuit of numerous titles in the meantime, as they have done impressively in recent years.
Sources quoted by Football Insider indicate that the club is “highly confident” of being acquitted, largely owing to their extensive legal team.
It’s worth noting that City possesses some of the wealthiest owners in global football, giving them the resources to afford top-tier legal representation.
