Guardiola set to attend Man City v PSG next week
Former Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is set to attend the club's upcoming Champions League match against PSG. This visit occurs amid ongoing controversy regarding the club's financial regulation breaches.
Why it matters
Guardiola's public support for the club during a period of legal scrutiny is a significant development in the ongoing Premier League financial investigation.
Pep Guardiola is expected to attend Manchester City's Champions League tie against Paris St-Germain next week - the club's first home match since they were found guilty of the majority of the 115 charges brought against them by the Premier League.
It will mark the first time the Spaniard has returned to Etihad Stadium since he left the club at the end of last season after a decade as manager.
Earlier this month, an independent commission found the club guilty of all charges relating to breaches of the Premier League's financial regulations between the 2009-10 and 2017-18 seasons.
City continue to deny any wrongdoing and have lodged an appeal against the findings in the Premier League's report that stated the club falsely inflated commercial revenues by £830m through "sham" contracts.
