UAE may halt UK investments after Manchester City guilty verdict

City have been found guilty of the vast majority of their 115 charges‚ many of which allege City cooked the books to the tune of nearly £900million through money artificially pumped into the club by their Abu Dhabi owners over a nine-year period. An appeal was confirmed by the club on Friday‚ with much of their defence suggesting commercial contracts were paid for by the Abu Dhabi government rather than their owner. Now‚ though‚ it has emerged that sponsors Etihad‚ the state-owner national airline of the United Arab Emirates‚ told the United States' department of commerce‚ transportation and state in 2015 that suggestions the government have paid for sponsorships are 'false'.

The official verdict was released on Tuesday afternoon‚ which showed City had cooked the books to the tune of nearly £900million through money artificially pumped into the club by their Abu Dhabi owners over a nine-year period. City have denied any wrongdoing‚ and have confirmed they have appealed. But that hasn't stopped fans having a pop at the Manchester club‚ and Potter‚ who was manager of Chelsea between 2022 and 2023‚ has done the same.

In a damning 40-page verdict City‚ who won eight trophies during the spell involved‚ artificially inflated sponsorship agreements and pumped money into the club from its Abu Dhabi owners via disguised payments in a bid to swerve Premier League spending rules.

The astonishing details of Manchester City's almost decade-long cheating have now been exposed in gory detail. As the Premier League released their verdict to shine a light on the extraordinary scale of the club's guilt on Tuesday afternoon‚ the football world scrambled to make sense of the wrongdoing. There's a huge amount to digest from the biggest sporting scandal in British history and behind the £900million artificially pumped into the Abu Dhabi-owned club‚ there were seven thousand pages of damning evidence.
