Senior football figures have called for Manchester City to receive punishment for breaching Premier League rules before the end of the current season.
The request has come from chiefs at other clubs, who believe the matter should be resolved within the season rather than being delayed beyond its conclusion.
The supplied report does not identify the individual figures involved, specify which Premier League rules were breached or set out what punishment is being considered. It also gives no further details about the timetable for any decision.
The latest position is that senior figures from other clubs want action to be taken before the season ends. No outcome or formal ruling is included in the available material.
