Prem CEO Masters revealed “a date has been set” for the hearing but refused to divulge any further details.

Now, he has spoken out again and insisted developments are incoming.

He said: “The hearing into Manchester City’s 115 charges will take place in the near future.”

City and Prem chiefs have gone back and forth for several months over when the hearing to address the alleged violations will take place.

The trial has been rumoured to kick off in the autumn, which means City may not learn their fate until the summer of 2025.

The club are accused of breaching 115 regulations from the 2009-10 season onwards.

Chief among the alleged violations are allegations of over financial reporting and a refusal to cooperate with the Prem’s investigation.

City have vehemently denied any wrongdoing.

But if found guilty the club could be hit with serious sanctions – possibly a points deduction or even relegation.

Everton were docked ten points this season for breaching profit and sustainability rules between 2020-23.

Similarly, Nottingham Forest had a four-point deduction for financial breaches.

The champions have challenged the 115 charges and the case was in the hands of the head of its “independent judicial panel”, Murray Rosen KC.
