I don't see a lot of news about the development of the 115 indictment issue about Man City. But today this news came out by accident, I read Nick de Marco KC sports lawyer. He argued that when one of those cases is proven true, Man City should not be relegated. The best thing is the point deduction like the one obtained by Everton. Remember this case began in 2023 with a closed trial. Until now there is no clear news. It is estimated that this problem will be resolved early this December.

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/man-city-charges-verdict-mendy-34131625I personally got news related to the accusations against Manchester City, but at that time based on the sources I read that Manchester City was not proven to have done anything wrong so the accusations against Manchester City were unsuccessful. That way, then at that time I thought the case was over but now I'm back to see info related to it. But about sanctions not being allowed to be relegated I think it might also still not fully be the final decision. Because I think,if the case is severe then it might be appropriate for Manchester City to receive a relegation penalty. But yes, if the case is still classified as a mild case, then given the sanction of reducing points it is still feasible to apply as a punishment.
But, maybe I become curious, if for example Manchester City are proven to have committed an offense and get a penalty such as a reduction in points and or relegation. I am also curious, whether Pep Guardiola will still stay at Manchester City or maybe choose to leave. Because anyway, so far at least Pep Guardiola is only willing to be the manager of the top team.
