Manchester City have vowed to clear their name and by doing so would open a door the Premier League would rather stay shut.
Manchester City are seated top of the table but know that focus will quickly switch to the independent commission from Monday as their battle with the Premier League begins.
The ramifications for both an innocent or a guilty verdict are seismic, and either will tarnish the gloss of the Premier League. Time will tell whether the League was right to bring forward the charges, but it has backed itself into a corner by doing so. In such a scenario, the reputational damage incurred on Man City over the last 18 months might also be a claim point given that the allegations against them, whether in part or in full, would be false.
Meanwhile, another commission ultimately found that the Premier League had no right to charge Leicester City over similar breaches, given the club was no longer one of its members for the specified accounting period.
