'I completely trust the club,' says Man City boss Maresca

Manchester City's manager Enzo Maresca expressed complete trust in the club following its guilty verdict for over 100 breaches of Premier League financial rules. Maresca, appointed in June and previously part of Pep Guardiola's coaching staff, affirmed his trust in the club's people and organization. The club was found guilty of arranging sham contracts with commercial partners to inflate revenues and reduce costs by £900 million over a nine-season period between 2009 and 2018.

Despite the accusations, Maresca denied any tarnishing of City's 15-year trophy haul, emphasizing the effort from players, staff, and former manager Guardiola. He stated that he would welcome Guardiola back at any time, expressing his desire for the club's success and the fans' satisfaction.
