How much did Man City's rule breaking cost your team?

Manchester City's rule-breaking has cost other teams significantly, according to BBC Sport's analysis. Through shams contracts, the club inflated sponsorship revenue by £830m and incurred £90m in expenses, altering the competition's dynamics. Without Sheikh Mansour's Abu Dhabi funding, City's sponsorship revenue grew from being near Stoke City in 2008-09 to surpassing Manchester United's.

The potential impact goes beyond financial losses, including missed Champions League qualification, relegation, and earnings from prize money.

The examination considers 35 teams playing in the English top flight between 2009 and 2018, each of which could have been financially disadvantaged. Using published prize money, the calculations reveal £799.5m as the potential financial impact on other clubs. £217.8m in missed Champions League prize money is the most notable loss, factored by deducting City's Champions League earnings from the subsequent seasons, while subtracting the impacted teams' Europa League prize money.

The 2014-15 season proved to be the biggest deficit, with Manchester City earning £71.2m for reaching the Champions League semi-finals, while Tottenham Hotspur received £17.7m from the Europa League - a difference of £53.5m. Other affected clubs include Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, who collectively incurred a net financial loss of £119.9m.
