The premier league are simply not clarifying the case, but regardless, it s a sprawling case over 1a seasons, and so it would be surprising if there wasn t a significant period of time dedicated to considering the verdict by that three person panel. So, estimates have ranged from any time in the new year all the way through to spring. And of course, it s not beyond the realms, perhaps, that some kind of compromise, some kind of arrangement or deal may be reached because the legal bill is spiraling tens of millions of pounds. It s estimated to have cost both sides already. And it may well be that at some stage some kind of arrangement is reached. But i think as it stands, if this runs its course, it s very hard to say.

City were charged and referred to an independent commission in february last year, following a four year investigation that said the club broke rules between 2009 and 2018.
