Fans noticed that Manchester City CEO impossibly didn't blink once in leaked video to staff

In a leaked video obtained by Sky Sports, Manchester City CEO Ferran Soriano defiantly addressed his staff in response to the club's conviction on 114 charges of financial wrongdoing. The Premier League's decision to uphold the guilty verdict drew widespread criticism from fans and soccer pundits alike.

Despite the gravity of the situation, Soriano managed to deliver his message without blinking for an astonishing 3.5 minutes. The video, which was confirmed to be a recording of Soriano's address, showed the CEO seated at a desk, his eyes hidden behind a computer screen. To some, the lack of blinking seemed suspicious, and social media quickly erupted with theories about the video's authenticity.

Many fans and commentators pointed out that Soriano's eyes never moved, suggesting that the video was AI-enhanced or that Soriano himself was using an AI-generated avatar. Some even went as far as to claim that the video was a blatant attempt by Manchester City to cheat and defraud its fans. The Premier League has given the club until Friday to present its appeal, but the potential sanctions against Manchester City are expected to be severe.
