Haaland speaks out on Manchester City verdict: ‘A difficult question to answer’

Erling Braut Haaland speaks out for the first time after the verdict against Manchester City. “It's a matter between the Premier League and Manchester City and will be handled by an independent panel,” the striker says, according to NRK.

Haaland has not previously commented on the ruling against his club, Premier League giants Manchester City.

But after Norway's victory over Wales in the Nations League on Saturday, the Norwegian was asked about it.

“It's a question I find difficult to answer. It's a matter between the Premier League and Manchester City and will be handled by an independent panel,” Haaland said, emphasizing that he has a long contract with City.

“I don't really know much. I assume the answers will come ... I don't know when. I haven't read much about it.”

It was during the autumn that Manchester City was found guilty of most of the 115 charges brought against the club over violations of the league's financial regulations.

Among other things, City is alleged to have inflated its revenues by 11.9 billion kronor over nine seasons through sham sponsorship agreements.

City has denied the charges throughout and appealed. No decision on sanctions has yet been made.
