Roy Keane has reacted to the recent news surrounding Manchester City.
And it’s fair to say, the Irishman didn’t pull any punches.
Roy Keane tells Manchester City players to bin their medals
With the situation surrounding Manchester City escalating, the Premier League released a statement, which was summarised by ITV following Czech Republic vs England.
Mark Pougatch read: “An independent commission has found Manchester City guilty of all charges related to serious breaches of the Premier League’s financial rules over a nine-season period (2009/10 – 20217/18).
“Manchester City arranged ‘sham’ contracts with a number of its commercial partners, as well as relying on ‘sham’ agreements with others to artificially inflate the club’s revenues and reduce its costs.
“(The purpose of these schemes was found to have been to artificially inflate the club’s revenues and reduce its costs, by more than £900 million)
“The club filed misstated accounts and concealed the true state of its finances from its auditors and football regulators.
“Manchester City was significantly in breach of both the Premier League’s and UEFA’s spending limits
“During the Premier League’s investigation, Manchester City committed multiple breaches of its duties of co-operation and utmost good faith towards the league.”
With such controversy hanging over the success of the club, Roy Keane said: “If I were a player who’d had that bit of success over those years, which they’ve got lots of praise and credit for, I’d be sticking those medals in the bin.”
When asked if he would’ve felt let down by Manchester City, he replied: “100% I would, it’s cheating.”
