An independent commission has found Manchester City guilty of 114 of the 115 charges brought against them for breaching Premier League financial rules, and the club have already lodged an appeal. Manager Enzo Maresca says the fans, the club and the team have grown closer since the damaging verdict. City followed a 3-0 win over Liverpool at Anfield with a 4-2 Champions League defeat by Paris Saint-Germain, yet the sense of unity inside the club remains intact.
"Since the noise, from my personal point of view, I can see the fans, the club, the team more together, for sure," Maresca said. The Italian added that he trusts the club's leadership 100%. Pep Guardiola, his predecessor, watched the PSG game from the stands and met Maresca in person. Ultimately, for all the financial turmoil, City sit top of the Premier League with six wins from six.
