Pep Guardiola backs Manchester City following guilty verdict
Pep Guardiola has backed his former club after it was found guilty on all charges related to serious breaches of the league's financial rules.
Pep Guardiola, the long-time manager of Manchester City, has expressed his unwavering support for his former club following a guilty verdict on serious breaches of financial rules by the Premier League. The ruling, issued on Tuesday, September 29, found the club not only guilty of artificially inflating revenues through sham contracts and commercial deals, but also obstructing an independent commission's investigation into the matter.
The investigation spanned a nine-season period from the 2009-10 campaign through the 2017-18 season. Guardiola, who managed City from 2016 to 2026 and won 17 major trophies, including six Premier League titles, posted on Instagram on Wednesday, September 30, assuring fans that he is there for the club during this crisis. He stated that he will always be behind City, his owner, chairman Ferran Soriano, the players, staff, and supporters.
