FIFA.....
Manchester City FC can confirm that it has today received a reprimand and a CHF 370,000 fine following the decision of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee concerning the international transfer of players under the age of 18, particularly in relation to their trial periods and participation in friendly games.
The Club accepts responsibility for the breaches which arose as a result of misinterpretation of the regulations in question. All of the breaches occurred before December 2016 when guidance on the interpretation of the provisions was issued, since which date Manchester City has been fully compliant.
The Club regards highly and shares FIFA’s determination to ensure the protection of minors in football and has cooperated fully with the investigation which has been transparent and evidenced based at all times.
Notice the evidence based bit,like khaldoon says,facts
worst scenario is a year ban and i'm almost 99.9% UEFA have shot themselves in the foot and expect nothing to happen,we will have the cream of lawyers on this 'the finest' :-)But it would.
If (for example)we were held out of that competition it would 100% affect who would want to join us in those 2 years.
Who says it would be 2 yrs? players will still join us anywayBut it would.

That should read apologetic!The vitriol that’s going to come our way in the wake of this is going to be astounding. A few of our friends are going to be apoplectic. I cannot fucking wait!
