00:00Manchester City Chief Executive Ferran Soriano has warned that the club's legal battle with the Premier League over its financial
00:10charges could take years to conclude.
00:13Speaking to fellow European club executives in Copenhagen, Soriano said City remained committed to clearing their name and would continue
00:24to fight the case.
00:25He reportedly told the meeting that it has taken eight years even to get to this point and that it
00:32was going to take a lot longer as well.
00:34City are expected to appeal after reports that an independent commission found 114 of 115 alleged breaches proven.
00:46No sanctions have yet been announced and the Premier League process remains ongoing.
00:51City have consistently denied any wrongdoing and maintain that they have evidence to prove their position.
01:01Soriano declined to answer questions from reporters after the meeting, but his comments underline the club's determination to continue contesting
01:12the findings.
01:13The case dates back to a Premier League investigation that began in 2018 after documents were leaked.
01:22They were formally charged in 2023.
01:28Ferran, do you have anything to say to Manchester City fans about the decision?
01:34Does the club plan to appeal?
