Al-Khelaifi: We are not in a position to judge Manchester City

Nasser Al-Khelaifi has refused to comment decisively on Manchester City's financial case, saying the European Football Clubs (EFC) are not in a position to judge the English club while the process is ongoing.

An independent Premier League commission has found Manchester City guilty of 114 of 115 alleged financial rule breaches. The club has denied wrongdoing and is expected to appeal the decision.

Speaking at the EFC General Assembly in Copenhagen, Al-Khelaifi said the organisation should wait for the legal process to reach its conclusion.

“We are not here to judge something that is still not a final decision. We are not judges and we are not a court,” the PSG president said.

Al-Khelaifi also praised Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano, who is a member of the EFC board. He described Soriano as a valuable member of the organisation and highlighted his experience and knowledge.

The EFC chairman stressed that Manchester City have the right to appeal and that the case remains primarily a matter between the club and the Premier League.
