<\/p>\nMANCHESTER CITY have agreed a trial date with the Premier League to address allegations they violated Financial Fair Play rules, it's been claimed.<\/p>\n
The defending Premier League champions were charged with a whopping 115 breaches of FFP rules in February.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
City and Prem chiefs have been going back and forth with one another for several months over when the hearing to address the alleged violations will take place.<\/p>\n
And according to reports, both parties have finally agreed on a date.<\/p>\n
That's according to The Daily Mail, who claim the trial – which will be behind closed doors – will get underway next<\/span> autumn<\/span>.<\/p>\n It's believed the hearing won't be concluded until the end of NEXT SEASON <\/strong>– which coincides with the expiration of Pep Guardiola's contract at the Etihad.<\/p>\n That means the Treble winners may not learn their fate until the summer<\/span> of 2025.<\/p>\n City are accused of breaching 115 regulations from the 2009-10 season onwards.<\/p>\n Chief among the alleged violations are allegations of over financial reporting and a refusal to cooperate with the Prem's investigation.<\/p>\n City have vehemently denied any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n If found guilty of the alleged violations, City will likely be handed an unprecedented points deduction.<\/p>\n Everton recently received a huge wrap on the knuckles for a single violation of FFP rules.<\/p>\n The Toffees were given a TEN-POINT<\/strong> points deduction this month for their alleged breach of the rules, which were introduced in 2009 and implemented at the start of the 2011\/12 season.<\/p>\n The Merseysiders – who received their charge a month after City – have appealed the deduction.<\/p>\n Relegation could also be on the cards for City if they're found guilty.<\/p>\n But Guardiola won't walk away from the club even if they drop into League One, saying: "I will answer when I have the sentence.<\/p>\n "You are questioning like we have been punished. And in the moment we are innocent until guilt is proved. <\/p>\n "I know the people want it. I know, I feel it. I will wait. <\/p>\n "Wait and see it and after the sentence has been done we will come here and explain it.<\/p>\nMost read in Football<\/h2>\n
