Man City launch legal action against Premier League
Manchester City have launched legal action against the Premier League, a source has confirmed to ESPN.
City are challenging the Premier League’s Associated Party Transaction rules (APT) claiming they are unlawful. A private arbitration hearing is scheduled to begin next week.
City have accused the Premier League of “discrimination against Gulf ownership” and are also suing for damages, according to a report first published by The Times. City have been owned by the Abu Dhabi United Group since 2008.
