Man City Accused of ‘Threatening and Disruptive Actions’ Amid Legal Battle with Premier League

Following a “feisty” crisis meeting with all 20 top-flight teams, Manchester City’s protracted legal dispute with the Premier League has gotten more intense. Several of their Premier League rivals have accused the English champions of using “threatening and disruptive” methods in the sponsorship contract issue.

After the Premier League rejected Manchester City’s new sponsorship agreement with Etihad Airlines, claiming it was not of fair market value, the dispute broke out. In response, the city’s legal staff ruled that the associated party transaction (APT) regulations were “void and unlawful.” A bitter legal struggle has begun as a result of this statement, with City attempting to contest the Premier League’s ruling.
