Former City defender Man City, Terry Phelan, has just made a “creative” plan if his former club is fined up to £ 1 billion for violating the Financial Fair Law (FFP).
Currently, Man City still asserts that he is innocent before 115 allegations from the Premier League related to financial violations in many seasons. An independent hearing took place but no final decision was made.
In the meantime, the media predicted a series of penalties that may occur such as subtracting points in the Premier League, banning transfer or deporting from the top tournament in England.
However, due to legal and political consequences, many strict punishments are facing opposition. However, a huge penalty is still possible.
Sharing with Goal, Phelan said: “Maybe they will be fined 100 million, 300 million, or even £ 1 billion.
Phelan also emphasized the dissatisfaction from the fans when comparing Man City's case with Everton or other clubs that were punished.
He said: “Fans always ask: Why is Everton fined and Man City is not? What is the reason? I don't know. Only the people at the top know the real reason.”
If it was really fined, the owner of Man City, Sheikh Mansour could fully pay, and even transformed the penalty into an opportunity to “divide” for the British low -class football, helping financial support for teams who are struggling with difficulties.
However, everything is still in the waiting circle, and the prolonged legal battle makes both fans and rival clubs are still nervous.
