Elmira, NY, September 26, 2026 —

Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak has publicly declared the club’s innocence regarding the charges brought against them by the Premier League concerning alleged financial breaches.

In his remarks, Al Mubarak asserted that the club is not guilty of the allegations. He further stated that the legal process surrounding these charges is expected to be lengthy, indicating that the case has “a long way to run”.

The Premier League officially charged Manchester City in February 2023 with over 100 alleged breaches of its financial rules. These charges reportedly span a period from the 2009-10 season to the 2017-18 season. The nature of the alleged breaches includes accusations of misleading the league regarding the club’s finances, including revenue, sponsorships, and operating costs.

Details regarding the specifics of the alleged breaches have not been fully disclosed by the league, and the club has consistently denied any wrongdoing. The process for handling such charges typically involves a commission that reviews evidence and may lead to hearings.

The chairman’s statement suggests a strong stance from the club’s leadership, emphasizing their belief in their innocence and preparing for a protracted legal battle. The timeline for the resolution of these charges remains uncertain.

No specific details regarding the contractor’s name, permit status, inspection outcomes, code violations, or fine amounts were provided in the available information pertaining to this statement.
