Honours even after round one of Man City vs Premier League financial rules fight
October 8 – English champions Manchester City have claimed a partial victory over the Premier League after one of the league’s key regulations relating to financial fairness was challenged.
An independent panel found the Premier League’s rules on sponsorship deals, known as Associated Party Transactions (APTs), break competition law in two specific ways.
But the Premier League said the tribunal’s redacted 175-page document “endorsed the overall objectives, framework and decision-making”.
The APT rules are designed to ensure commercial deals with entities linked to a club’s owners reflect fair market value.
