EPL managers cautious after Man City guilty verdict

Premier League managers are exercising caution regarding Manchester City's financial-rule verdict, as the top flight prepares to resume this weekend. The club was found guilty of breaching 115 financial rules, though they have appealed the decision. Coventry City manager Frank Lampard, who played for City in the 2014-15 season, expressed a wait-and-see approach when asked about the case.

Lampard stated, "I'm not inside the story, I'm outside it completely. We'll wait and see what the result of the appeal is and onwards." Leeds United boss Daniel Farke echoed a similar sentiment, saying, "Not my topic. My topic is football. There are more qualified people to speak on this." The verdict has drawn renewed attention to Manchester City, with manager Enzo Maresca set to face the media on Friday.

Maresca appeared relaxed, but questions about the case are expected to dominate his press conference.
