Al Mubarak stated that he is still committed to proving the club's innocence and that the process has a long way to run.
Hart, who spent 10 years at City from 2006 to 2016, praised Al Mubarak and said he has no reason not to trust him. The former goalkeeper believes that the club's achievements are not tarnished and that there is nothing concrete to suggest guilt.
