Former City players voice differing views after financial‑rules verdict

Mirror Football reports that Manchester City have been found guilty of breaching the Premier League’s financial regulations over a nine‑year period, a decision that could lead to further sanctions against the club.

Former centre‑back Manuel Akanji said he is concerned the ruling might jeopardise the trophies won during that era, noting that the club’s legacy could be called into question if titles are stripped.

By contrast, former right‑back Kyle Walker offered a confident response, insisting that the team’s achievements will endure and that the club will move forward regardless of any punitive measures.

Both former players acknowledged the seriousness of the decision and said fans will be closely watching how the Premier League proceeds. Readers can find related match highlights on this site.
