Story updated
The story in brief
31-second readAssessing the first portion of Manchester City's 2026/27 season Manchester City supporters will be glad to know that the on-field agenda for the club resumes this weekend, as Enzo Maresca and his players return to Premier League action with a trip to face Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.
It comes after a three-week international break that brought with it the long-awaited verdict from the Premier League on City's 115 charges, finding that the club had been guilty of the majority of such allegations revolving around financial rules.
An independent commission highlighted in particular that Manchester City had artificially inflated their commercial revenue figures through "sham" contracts, increasing such revenue by around £830 million.
