Lord Pannick KC from Blackstone Chambers, who is leading City’s legal team, was pictured arriving at the IDRC, close to St Paul’s Cathedral in central London. The hearing is reported to have been scheduled for 10 weeks, with the independent commission’s verdict not expected until the new year.The charges facing City, who won a fourth straight Premier League title in May, date back as far as the 2009-10 season.

In 2020 they were banned from European competition after being found guilty of breaking Uefa’s financial fair play rules, but successfully challenged that ruling at the court of arbitration for sport.
