Man City CEO warns it will take ‘a lot more time’ to settle Premier League charges

Manchester City's CEO Ferran Soriano has warned fellow European club leaders that the ongoing legal battle with the Premier League will take "a lot more time" to resolve. The club was found guilty of all but one of 115 charges related to breaching the league's financial regulations. City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak expressed confidence in proving their innocence, while Soriano addressed the situation during a meeting with European Football Clubs board members in Copenhagen.

Soriano stated that the lengthy process began with the investigation's opening in 2018 and that it would require additional time to conclude. The charges include issues such as failing to provide full details of former manager Roberto Mancini's pay and not providing accurate financial information.
