Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy has reportedly called for Manchester City to face a points deduction if found guilty of their 115 alleged financial breaches. The Premier League champions are under intense scrutiny, with their case set to be heard later this year.
Levy's Strong Stance on Financial Fair Play
According to reports, Levy has privately expressed his frustration over the prolonged investigation into City's alleged rule-breaking. He believes that a strong punishment, such as a points deduction, is necessary to maintain the integrity of the competition.
Manchester City have repeatedly denied any wrongdoing, but the Premier League's charges relate to financial reporting and alleged breaches spanning nearly a decade. The case has become one of the most significant in English football history.
Pressure Mounts on Premier League
The Premier League is under increasing pressure to deliver a swift and decisive verdict. Other clubs, including Tottenham, are reportedly growing impatient with the lack of progress in the case.
Levy's comments come at a time when financial regulations in football are under the microscope. Everton and Nottingham Forest have already faced points deductions this season for breaching Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), adding fuel to the debate over consistency in punishments.
What This Means for the Title Race
If City were to be hit with a points deduction, it could have major implications for the Premier League title race. Pep Guardiola's side are currently locked in a tight battle with Arsenal and Liverpool at the top of the table.
While no timeline has been confirmed for the hearing, the football world will be watching closely to see how the Premier League handles one of its most high-profile cases.
