Manchester City referred to UEFA’s FFP judges  

After months of investigation, Manchester City have been referred to the Club Financial Control Body’s adjudicatory chamber for breaching the rules of Financial Fair Play.

The investigation opened in March after several stories in the German magazine Der Spiegel showed Manchester City were backdating contracts and masking investments from the club owner as sponsorships. 

Manchester City deny any wrongdoing and criticise the investigation, calling it a “wholly unsatisfactory, curtailed, and hostile process.”
