Manchester City is waiting to know the sanction for the 115 charges against it for breaching financial fair play rules. If found guilty, several of the team's stars could leave the club

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Concern is beginning to grow at Manchester City. The Manchester club is being investigated in the already considered 'trial of the century' and could face a historic sanction that could lead to its expulsion from the Premier League. Given the uncertainty about the future of the club, the representatives of the main stars of the 'skyblue' team have set in motion the machinery to cover the backs of their players.

The Manchester institution is accused of having breached up to 115 charges related to the 'financial fair play' regulations in recent seasons, a process that is being carried out by an 'independent panel'. From the offices of the Etihad Stadium they insist on their innocence and maintain that the case will remain an anecdote, although the fear of an unprecedented punishment increases with each passing day.

The 'citizens' could face sanctions that would range from losing an unprecedented number of points to immediate expulsion from the First Division of England. The possible conviction would be a turning point for the club, which would see its top players decide to leave the club in the face of the serious situation in which they could find themselves if they are penalized.

The players' agents are analyzing the possible scenarios

According to what was reported in the 'Daily Mail', the representatives of the members of the 'skyblue' squad are eager to know the club's plans to find out about the options offered to them if the worst of the forecasts comes true. In fact, the agents would already be analyzing different alternatives in the face of the threat of forced relegation, a situation that the Manchester club does not at all want, where they have resigned themselves to waiting for their sentence, which could come at the beginning of 2025.

If they are found guilty, the continuity of players such as Erling Haaland, Rodri, Kevin de Bruyne or Bernardo Silva would be practically ruled out, which is why their respective agents are moving to have an 'escape route' if the 'skyblues' are finally sanctioned. The cards will not be played until the extent of the punishment is known, but members of the club are beginning to prepare a 'plan B' in anticipation of a bleak future for the club.

Will Barça fish in 'troubled waters'?

This situation could be taken advantage of by several of the continent's big clubs, including FC Barcelona, ​​where they could try to sign a couple of big names from the 'Citizen' team. Erling Haaland and Rodri Hernández are two old desires of the Blaugrana entity, so if they are 'in the market' for transfers, the Catalans could launch an offensive for one of the two, whose incorporations would give the definitive leap in quality to a squad that already shows itself to be the best in the world. The next few weeks will be key.
