What happened. Premier League CEO Richard Masters admitted the process is taking longer than expected and he cannot confirm when a ruling will be published.
- Charges were first issued in February 2023.
- Hearing began in 2024 before an independent commission.
- Masters says rules require allowing process to conclude naturally.
“I do accept it's taking longer than expected, and I understand that people want to find out as soon as possible what's going on, but I simply can't provide that.”
— Richard Masters
City and rival clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham wait for the commission's ruling.
