A decision on the sanctions to be applied to Manchester City under Uefa’s financial fair play rules has been expected for some time now. Indeed, the details of the Uefa offer including a £49m fine and player restrictions has been widely leaked, although it was clear that the club was unhappy with the proposed settlement.
However, the chair of the Uefa panel, former Belgian prime minister Jean-Luc Dehaene, has been ill and he has now passed away. This may result in a further delay in a decision.
