That tweet was fake news. City are owned personally by Sheikh Mansour (75pc) and Los Angeles-based Silver Lake (25pc). Contrary to the conspiracy theorists City Football Club is not controlled by the UAE Government and never has been so it is absurd to suggest that "they are going to pull investments out of the UK." Sheikh Mansour has huge personal investments in the UK mostly in the financial and property sectors.
Thanks for that. I did find that assertion odd and hard to believe.

Much as I'm loath to admit I read it, there has been a definite change in tone at the Daily Fail. This is from one of the recent articles about our dominance:
"...there is a shadow hanging over these triumphs in the shape of the 115 charges levelled against City by the Premier League, alleging financial breaches that happened before Guardiola came to the club but which, if proven, will stain these triumphs.
City’s case may be heard this winter. A verdict may be reached some time next year. They may be exonerated of all the charges."
The bits I've highlighted in bold weren't being written a month ago and the "may be exonerated of all charges" has appeared in more than one article. I think that phrase is significant because it never appeared before.
They're definitely back-peddling and I'm happy to believe that that is because they've been tipped off that we will be exonerated.
