JAKARTA - Manchester City will undergo a lawsuit regarding the two-year ban from appearing in European competitions imposed by UEFA at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Switzerland, Monday, June 8 local time. The trial will last three days.
According to the Daily Mail, the three-day trial was filled with the agenda of hearing testimony from Man City regarding the sanctions imposed by UEFA in February. These sanctions are based on the alleged violation of the Financial Compliance Rules (FFP) and being non-cooperative during the investigation process.
Apart from being banned from appearing in Europe for two years, Man City was also fined 30 million euros (27.2 million pounds). City have been known to overstate sponsorship revenue in accounts submitted to European football's governing body between 2012 and 2016.
The UEFA investigation began in March 2019 following the leak of internal Man City documents revealed by the Football Leaks website. The document contains allegations of inflating the sponsorship agreement by the club owner.
In addition to questioning the origin of the leaked documents, Man City also stated that the method of investigating the UEFA Club Financial Control Agency (CFCB) was unpleasant. They have also consistently denied wrongdoing in the matter stemming from the series of articles published by Der Spiegel in November 2018.
