Man City deserve to keep trophies despite charges, says PSG’s Luis Enrique
Enrique, a friend of former Man City boss Guardiola, hopes the club can avoid the sanction of losing its titles.
Paris St Germain manager Luis Enrique expressed his support for Manchester City, asserting that the team should retain their trophies, despite the club facing potential penalties for breaching Premier League financial regulations. The investigation revealed that Manchester City utilized fraudulent commercial contracts, which were designed to bolster their revenue while minimizing their expenses by over £900 million ($1.19 billion).
The club, which has vigorously denied any wrongdoing and is appealing the verdict, could face sanctions such as fines, a points deduction, relegation, or even having their titles revoked. When asked about the verdict before a Champions League match against City, Enrique said, "Initially, it's shocking, but we must respect the process and await the final decision.
Authorities are responsible for making these decisions, and we must wait patiently. However, focusing solely on football and what I witnessed on the pitch, Manchester City truly deserve those trophies. I admire their style of play, and now we must await the ultimate decision and nothing more. I hope they can avoid those penalties." The two teams are set to face off again on Wednesday at the Etihad Stadium.
