Goal.com reports that the Premier League's independent commission has determined that Manchester City FC concealed a payment of £8.866 million owed to the club's former coach through a third-party consultancy agreement.

The commission found that Manchester City FC breached Premier League rules P.7 and P.8 by routing part of the coach's deferred compensation through a consultancy agreement with a third party, with funding from the Abu Dhabi Group, the club's owner. The commission determined the arrangement was "artificial," causing Manchester City FC to underreport expenses, and concluded that the club's management "clearly intended to circumvent Premier League rules."

These charges relate to former Manchester City FC manager Roberto Mancini. Mancini managed Manchester City FC from December 2009 to May 2013. However, the commission's findings targeted the club and found no adverse findings against Mancini himself. The documents also stated that Mancini was not party to the relevant agreement. Mancini said on Sunday: "I don't believe Manchester City FC will be found guilty. Quite the opposite."
