Man City’s trial over 115 charges scheduled for next year

The Premier League has agreed terms with Manchester City to schedule their trial over the 115 charges for next autumn.

The two parties will face off in front of an independent panel in what shapes to be the biggest hearing in football’s history.

An investigation has been opened since 2018 and it seems it will reach its conclusion towards the end of 2024.

Those with deeper knowledge believe a final verdict will be given around 2025, which is when the contract of current manager Pep Guardiola expires.

City are accused of breaching 115 regulations over 14 seasons from 2009-10 onwards.

The charges include claims over financial reporting and a lack of co-operation with a Premier League investigation which was opened in 2018. The team so far has denied all of the accusations.
