Story updated
The story in brief
28-second readMikel Arteta has refused to open fire on Manchester City despite their recent guilty verdict, insisting he “will respect the process” until all legal procedures are complete and a final decision is made.
Editor’s note: the BBC wrongly attributed quotes from Enzo Maresca re: “trusting the club” to Mikel Arteta, and we have since corrected our copy.
It was announced over the international break that City were found guilty of 114 financial rule breaches by an independent commission, with the club using “sham” contracts and disguised funding that amounted to more than £900m over a nine-year period between 2009 and 2018.
