Manchester City may be expelled from the Premier League after being found guilty of the vast majority of of 115 breaches of the financial rules it had been accused of.

Sanctions on the club, which are yet to be announced, may include exclusion from the UK’s top football league, a points deduction or a huge fine.

The news of the guilty verdict was broken by the Athletic, which reported that 114 of the 115 charges have been upheld. The BBC has been told that the club is planning to appeal.

The news came 1,327 days after City were charged by the Premier League in February 2023 following a four-year investigation, and 22 months since a hearing by an independent commission concluded.

The seismic decisions leaves a huge number of questions about what will happen next, what City’s punishment might be and how the current season will be affected.

One possibility is that rival Premier League sides may take legal action for compensation, claiming they have been impacted by City’s actions. A number of clubs have already sought legal advice over whether they would have a case for financial compensation.

There is precedent for such compensation claims. In June 2026, Everton were told they must pay Burnley £35m after they broke profit and sustainability regulations.
