The Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld City’s appeal against the ban, but imposed a $11.3 million fine on the club

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Manchester City successfully overturned its two-year ban from the Champions League on Monday in a surprising legal victory.

Man City joins Paris Saint-Germain, AC Milan and Galatasaray in beating UEFA in appeal cases related to finance monitoring rules in the past two years. UEFA punished Man City in February for “serious breaches” of finance monitoring rules and failing to co-operate with investigators. The allegations included that City, owned by Abu Dhabi’s royal family, misled UEFA over several years to meet financial integrity rules – known as Financial Fair Play – required to enter European club competitions.City denied wrongdoing, and said it had “irrefutable evidence” the claims were not true.

The system was used to ban several clubs, including Galatasaray in 2016, from one season of UEFA competitions. City was the first club to be banned for two years. UEFA-appointed investigators opened a case after leaked club emails and documents from City officials were published by German magazine Der Spiegel in November 2018. They were likely obtained by a hacker from Portugal.
