Premier League chief executive Richard Masters has acknowledged growing impatience over the delayed verdict concerning Manchester City's alleged financial rule breaches. Masters admitted the process has taken longer than anticipated, with the club still awaiting the outcome of 115 charges.
Manchester City was charged in February 2023 and has consistently denied any wrongdoing. Masters stated to Sky News that he must keep everything confidential until a decision is ready to be announced, and could not provide an update on timing.
The ongoing situation unfolds as City prepares to start their new Premier League season at home to Bournemouth on Sunday, under new manager Enzo Maresca following Pep Guardiola's departure.
