'The allegations are not true' - Man City CEO Soriano hits back after European ban

Manchester City CEO Ferran Soriano has spoken out to defend the club's financial activity in the wake of their two-season European ban.

The reigning Premier League champions were hit with a €30 million fine last week for breaching Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations between 2012 and 2016.

However, Soriano has issued an official statement denying the allegations against City, insisting the club are not guilty of any wrongdoing.

He said: "Well the most important thing I have to say today is that the allegations are not true. They are simply not true.
