‘Wow!’, ‘Unbelievable’ – some fans can’t believe what’s happened to Manchester City tonight

Manchester City have been banned from the Champions League for two seasons by UEFA, the governing body confirmed.

The Sky Blues have been accused of committing ‘serious breaches of the UEFA Club Licensing and Financial Fair Play Regulations by overstating its sponsorship revenue’ between 2012 and 2016.

City also failed to co-operate when probed by the independent Adjudicatory Chamber of the Club Financial Control Body. Pep Guardiola’s side will be banned from the Champions League in 2020/21 & 2021/22 and have a fine of £25m to pay.
