Man City face further chaos as they are NOT guaranteed place in EFL if they are kicked out of Premier League

MANCHESTER CITY face further chaos as they are not guaranteed to remain in the EFL if they are booted out of the Premier League.

The champions are in potential turmoil after being charged with more than 100 alleged breaches of financial rules.

The charges against Manchester City

City face an incredible 32 separate charges, including failing to cooperate with a League probe for the past four years.

The Etihad club could be stripped of their Premier League titles.

And there are also fears Pep Guardiola could walk just months after signing a new contract.

Prem rivals are now demanding City be relegated if they are found guilty of breaching Financial Fair Play rules.

But that could turn out to be even more disastrous for City than first thought, claims the Telegraph.

That’s because the EFL would not be obliged to to find space for City in their 72-club system.

And there would likely need to be a change in regulations for City to remain, should they be expelled from the top flight.

But the champs are instead hoping to clear their name after overturning a two-year European ban by Uefa in 2020.

An independent commission is now set to hear the charges.

City released a statement yesterday insisting they are confident of not having breached any rules.

It read: “Manchester City FC is surprised by the issuing of these alleged breaches of the Premier League Rules, particularly given the extensive engagement and vast amount of detailed materials that the EPL has been provided with.

“The Club welcomes the review of this matter by an independent Commission, to impartially consider the comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence that exists in support of its position.

“As such we look forward to this matter being put to rest once and for all.”
