Premier League Players Prepare Legal Claims Threatening Manchester City’s Finances
Sky Sports News reports that a wave of lawsuits is being prepared by Premier League players against Manchester City. The claims will focus on financial bonuses tied to achievements that players from other clubs missed out on due to City’s championship wins.
It is important to recall that the Manchester-based club was found guilty of financial misconduct that contributed to their high performance in the Premier League.
The disputes over bonuses will not only come from players of teams that finished second but also from those whose clubs failed to qualify for European competitions during the seasons when City’s financial violations were officially uncovered.
These lawsuits have the potential to push the club towards complete bankruptcy.
