Manchester City, Liverpool
October 2025
Manchester City await a ruling on 115 FFP charges dating back to 2009–2018. Rivals like Liverpool could launch major compensation claims if City are found guilty, potentially leading to points deductions, transfer embargoes, or expulsion from the Premier League.
Independent hearings concluded in 2024 but judgment remains pending. Finance experts suggest clubs, including FSG, may cover hefty legal costs to claim lost revenue. Everton’s case with Leeds over PSR breaches sets precedent. City maintain innocence, while Premier League chief Richard Masters insists on independent process patience.
