Posted on 18 September 2024

Innovation Partner, Simon Leaf, has offered insights into the potential ramifications of Manchester City's ongoing Premier League commission hearing, explaining the outcome of this case could have significant implications for world sport. 

Simon Leaf commented: "The consequences are likely to impact not just English football but world sport more generally." 

"It's importance to sports regulators everywhere should not be understated - with the ability for such bodies to enforce their own rules at stake." 

"Other clubs could potentially look at other avenues that may be available under the Premier League's rules to pursue City if they are found to have been in breach."
