Rodri believes in Man City's 'innocence'
Former Manchester City midfielder Rodri believes the club are innocent of any financial wrongdoing and will trust them unless they are proved otherwise.
Former Manchester City midfielder Rodri maintains faith in the club's innocence regarding financial wrongdoing. The Premier League has found City guilty of breaching 115 financial rules, but the team is planning to appeal the decision. At a news conference before Spain's UEFA Nations League match against England, Rodri, who transferred to Barcelona in August, supported City's stance.
The 30-year-old emphasized that the club always expresses confidence in their own innocence. City was previously cleared of financial fair play charges by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in 2020, with a two-year ban from European competitions. Rodri cited this case as evidence that the club can overcome similar judicial processes.
He believes in the justice system and the club's innocence, dismissing claims of having certain titles stripped.
