Tottenham CEO Urges Resolution on Man City 115 FFP Charges

Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy has publicly criticized the prolonged Premier League investigation into Manchester City's alleged 115 financial fair play breaches, urging a swift resolution for the good of the game. The legal case, which began in 2024 following leaked documents, remains unresolved despite an arbitration hearing ending last year, with City denying all allegations. Levy highlighted concerns over multi-club ownership structures, such as those involving Manchester City and City Football Group, arguing that related party transactions and state-owned clubs can create unfair competitive advantages and should be more tightly controlled. He emphasized that the ongoing delay benefits lawyers financially while harming the sport's integrity and confidence among sponsors and broadcasters. Levy called for clearer European regulations on related party transactions and stressed the importance of maintaining financial control measures to prevent abuse in a football landscape increasingly influenced by complex ownership networks. His comments reflect a broader call within football to enhance transparency and fairness in club ownership and financial dealings.
