UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has reiterated his stance that the European football governing body were right to punish Manchester City for previous breaches of financial rules.
City were charged with breaking Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations by UEFA in 2018 and were thrown out of the Champions League with a two-year ban. The Blues appealed the decision, taking it to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), and had it overturned.
City currently face 115 Premier League charges over breaches of competition rules across more than a decade. City insist they have an 'irrefutable body of evidence' to support their position that they have done nothing wrong and they have engaged lawyers to fight the decision.

Ceferin has now taken a firm stance on UEFA's historical investigation into City. “We know we were right," he said in an interview with the Telegraph. "We wouldn’t decide if we didn’t think we were right.
“As a trial lawyer for 25 years, I know that, sometimes, you win a case that you are sure you will lose. And, sometimes, you lose a case when you’re sure. You just simply have to respect in a serious democracy the decision of the court.
“I don’t want to speak about the case in England. But I trust that the decision of our independent body was correct. I didn’t enter into this decision.”
City themselves claimed that the CAS decision was a validation and they irrefutably deny the allegations made by the Premier League. The case is much more complex then the one that saw Everton punished with a 10-point deduction.
