Manchester City could be banned from Champions League, as English club is accused of breaking European Football Association’s financial rules and regulations.
English football authorities demand a one-year-ban for Premier League champions. The final decision will be made by Yves Leterme, former prime minister of Belgium, currently leading investigatory panel.
What ban could mean for Manchester United and Arsenal
As things stand, City will be joined in next season’s Champions League by Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea.
Arsenal ended the season in the fifth spot but face Chelsea in Baku in the Europa League final, knowing victory will secure their place.
Should they miss out, Arsenal would be the most likely to fill City’s spot in next season’s competition but a victory for the Gunners in Baku could potentially see Manchester United drafted in.
