Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>The English Premier League has accused Manchester City of years of financial rules violations in the space of nine seasons, with the club referred to an independent commission.<\/p>\n

The league said in a statement on Monday that in a lengthy investigation, the Sky Blues were found to have broken rules from the 2009-10 season until the 2017-18 campaign.<\/p>\n

Alleged offenses include failure to failing to provide “accurate financial information that gives a true and fair view of the club\u2019s financial position” or gives “full details of manager remuneration in its relevant contracts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The league added that Man City also failed to comply with UEFA regulations in 2013-18, league profitability and sustainability rules in 2015-18, and assisting with the Premier League investigation from December 2018 until now.<\/p>\n

In 2020, the English club were banned from European events for the 2020-21 and 2021-22 seasons and were fined \u20ac30 million ($32 million) due to breaches of UEFA club financial fair play regulations.<\/p>\n
