Manchester City owners face potential forced sale after guilty verdict appeal

Manchester City's ownership could face a forced sale if a guilty verdict is upheld. David Kogan, chair of the Independent Football Regulator, stated the body has the authority to request the sale of the club if it is found that they managed the club improperly. An independent commission previously determined that City circumvented Premier League rules by inflating revenues and attempted to obstruct inquiries into their conduct. City is currently appealing this verdict. Kogan emphasized that any future action would be contingent on the outcomes of ongoing investigations.
