Manchester City will be "forced to pay" Premier League rivals due to breaching FFP regulations, according to a new report.

At the start of 2023, Man City were charged after being accused of breaching over 100 of the Premier League's Financial Fair Play rules.

Pep Guardiola's side were referred to an independent commission after the Premier League conducted a four-year probe into their conduct between 2009 and 2018.

If found guilty, Man City could be given a huge fine, points deduction, transfer ban or expulsion from the Premier League.

The Cityzens have insisted their innocence and launched a legal battle against the Premier League earlier this year as they campaigned for the removal of Associated Party Transaction (APT) rules.

Man City's APT case has already concluded. Each side had success, but it's been claimed that the Premier League club "won on penalties".

The FFP hearing remains ongoing and a new 'concrete' update has revealed when this case is likely to conclude.

Earlier this week, a report from The Times revealed Man City's Premier League rivals will demand compensation if they are found guilty of breaching FFP.

A new report from Football Insider claims Man City 'could land a £70m+ blow' as they may be 'forced' to compensate their Premier League rivals.

It is also claimed that Man City's Premier League would have two 'avenues' to 'seek' damages. The report claims.
