The Times reports Manchester City should be banned from the Champions League for the 2020-21 season for allegedly making false declarations of sponsorship income, Uefa investigators have recommended.
The matter was passed to the governing body's adjudicatory chamber yesterday for sentencing.
The Premier League champions reacted angrily to being formally charged with fraudulently attempting to circumvent financial fair play (FFP) regulations, accusing Uefa of failing to implement due process and rushing to charge them without properly considering more than 100 pages of documents that they have provided in their defence.
City's fate will be determined by the adjudicatory chamber of Uefa's club financial control body (CFCB) after a two-month inquiry by their investigators, who have provided guidance on what they believe is the appropriate disciplinary measure.

There is no need to ban the game. If you want to punish Manchester City, you could deduct two points in the league's points. just two points...

What is the real Arsenal, even though the ranking is not the fourth, but still can participate in the Champions League as the fourth.hahahaha

Why are they always doing all their fair play investigation only on man city, there are more clubs in Europe which should be investigated for for fair play violation. city's all time transfer record ranges at about €60m while there are clubs like psg with 2 players worth more than €350m. so to me i think investigating city for the second time is just personal

Change the title to: "Guardiola is leaving Man City so that he could win Ucl next season".

As an Arsenal fan, I am very supportive of this decision. After all, we have not played very well this season. It would be great if we could enter the Champions League because of penalizing Manchester City.
