Man City should ‘accept’ punishment for rule breaches, says Lineker
The 10-time English champions, who continue to deny any wrongdoing, confirmed that they had appealed against the judgement.
Gary Lineker has urged Manchester City to accept whatever punishment they receive for their violation of Premier League financial regulations, in the interest of the game. An independent commission has found City guilty of over 100 breaches of the rules, which spanned from 2009 to 2018. The club has denied any wrongdoing and has appealed the decision.
While no specific punishment has been determined, City could face substantial points deductions, a fine, or even expulsion from the league. Lineker believes that admitting their mistake and accepting the consequences would be beneficial for the sport and preserve the achievements of the players and fans.
