UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has called for Manchester City to face "appropriate consequences" in light of breaches of Premier League financial rules. The statement, released on Thursday and signed by a spokesperson from 10 Downing Street, emphasized that the initial judgment is serious and that no one should be above the rules.
Burnham stressed the importance of allowing the ongoing independent process to run its course and for the outcome to be respected. He also stated that those found to be responsible for wrongdoing should face the appropriate consequences. The independent commission discovered that the club had arranged "sham" contracts between 2009/10 and 2017/18 with various commercial partners as part of a "disguised funding scheme" aimed at artificially boosting the club's revenues by £830m.
