- An independent commission found Manchester City guilty of 114 financial rule breaches dating to 2009–2018.
- David Kogan, head of the independent football regulator, told Times Radio the appeal will be heard by mid-to-late January.
- Pep Guardiola returned to the Etihad Stadium for the PSG match, writing: "I want every Manchester City fan to know that I am here; more than ever before."
- Kogan said he will resign if any future regulator investigation into Manchester City faces political interference.
- During his visit, Guardiola reportedly met with club chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak and chief executive Ferran Soriano.
