[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, before the deadline on Tuesday local time, several Premier League teams have reserved the right to seek financial compensation due to potential financial violations by Manchester City. Previously, Manchester City faced 115 charges of violations. However, before the case results are released, lawyers have even advised these clubs to take action, as the case has a potential six-year statute of limitations, which can even be retroactive to November 5, 2018. At that time, a German website first published the “Football Leaks” documents. It was reported that if the charges against Manchester City are confirmed, several Premier League clubs could apply for compensation for lost economic income due to missing out on league titles or European competitions during those years, with amounts potentially reaching hundreds of millions of pounds. According to Premier League regulations, clubs cannot sue each other in court but can seek financial compensation through arbitration based on specific regulations. Regarding Manchester City’s violations, it is unclear how fans of other Premier League teams feel about this.
