Wayne Rooney, ex-Manchester United player, does not believe his former club deserves to receive Premier League titles if Manchester City have their titles taken away due to financial rule breaches. City were found guilty of 115 charges related to financial rule violations from 2009-10 to 2017-18, as well as failing to cooperate with investigations between December 2018 and February 2023.
The sanctions for the violations are yet to be announced, and City plans to appeal the decision. Rooney, who played for United when they finished second to City in the 2011-2012 season, would not feel comfortable accepting a title retrospectively if City were penalized. He thinks United didn't do enough that season to win the league and feels the team is undeserving of a medal.
Rooney also believes City should be relegated, adding "I do think we’re going to see City getting relegated."
