Manchester City will get the verdict on Monday in its appeal against a two-year ban from UEFA competitions.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport on Friday set the date to publish the ruling from its panel of three judges at 10:30 a.m. Swiss time .
The allegations included that City, owned by Abu Dhabi’s royal family, misled UEFA over several years to meet financial integrity rules — known as Financial Fair Play — required to enter the Champions League.UEFA-appointed experts opened their investigation after leaked club emails and documents were published by German magazine Der Spiegel in November 2018. They were obtained by a hacker from Portugal.
UEFA had previously signed off on City’s submitted accounts since 2014. That year, UEFA fined City 20 million euros of its Champions League prize money in a first wave of assessments of European clubs’ finances. Two of those three judges also sat on the latest appeal. UEFA and City used their selections on the same arbitrators, and the court appointed a different panel chairman.
