• City welcome investigation and an end to ‘speculation’
Uefa has launched a formal investigation into Manchester City following the allegations that the club violated financial fair play rules made in the German magazine Der Spiegel and based on “leaked” documents.
The most serious allegation was that City disguised investment by the club’s owner, Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al- Nahyan of the Abu Dhabi ruling family, and represented it as sponsorship by the country’s airline, Etihad.
