Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak issues new update on Premier League’s 115 charges

Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak issues new update on Premier League’s 115 charges Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak has sent a new wave of reassurance, treating the long-running 115 charges saga with relaxed defiance. The chairman revealed he is counting down the days until a final independent ruling drops, promising a complete, unfiltered “sit-down” regarding the entire case. Al Mubarak’s calmness serves to insulate incoming manager Enzo Maresca from outside media noise as the Italian closes in on an official unveiling as the club’s new coach. Khaldoon Al Mubarak – the Manchester City chairman – has issued his latest comment surrounding the club’s 115 charges issued by the Premier League in February 2023. The update arrives at the end of a season that brought another FA Cup and Carabao Cup double to the Etihad Stadium , with English football awaiting a resolution to the legal saga. Manchester City belief on 115 charges outcome revealed ahead of imminent verdict The independent panel concluded a highly secretive, 12-week evidentiary hearing at London’s International Dispute Resolution Centre back in December 2024, with no conclusion or verdict to the matter since. Despite industry speculation that a verdict would land earlier this year, or 12 months prior, both the Premier League and Etihad Stadium executives have seemingly been kept in the dark without update. The delay has been heavily attributed to the vast scale of the investigation, which spans a nine-year window between 2009 and 2018 , encompassing probing into corporate sponsorship reporting, commercial revenue structures, and historical player-manager remuneration. What has Khaldoon Al Mubarak said on the 115 charges? Now, speaking during the second part of his annual end-of-season interview , Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak concluded his latest conversation by being quizzed on the charges issued by the Premier League for alleged breaches of financial rules in February 2023. “Let me be as consistent as I’ve always been; until we have a ruling I can’t say much,” Al Mubarak insisted. However, he continued, “Once we have a ruling, believe me, we’re going to have a wonderful sit-down together and I’ll say everything I’ve wanted to say for the last three years,” before ending with a laugh to himself.
