'Stick together, enjoy the ride and smile' - Haaland's message to Man City fans

Sky Sports Champions League ·

🇬🇧 English

Erling Haaland has urged Manchester City supporters to stick together and keep smiling after the club was found guilty of all charges related to serious breaches of Premier League financial rules. His message: "stay together, enjoy the ride and smile."

The club has launched an appeal against the verdict of an independent commission. City insist they are "innocent" and have described the judgement as "opinion", claiming it "contains clear material errors, of law, principle and fact and is unsafe".

The commission found that between 2009/10 and 2017/18, City arranged "sham" contracts with a number of commercial partners as part of a "disguised funding scheme" to artificially inflate the club's revenues by £830m. It also concluded that the club filed accounts that concealed the true state of its finances, and broke "well over 100" Premier League regulations.

Amid the off-field fallout, Haaland and his team-mates face Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, live on Sky Sports. Haaland, son of former City player Alf-Inge Haaland, said he sees himself as a City fan too. "I care a lot about the city, I have to say. I care a lot about the fans because I'm a fan myself," he said.

Haaland also looked ahead to the fixture, which has carried a strong rivalry since the Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp eras. "It's always special to play against Liverpool," he said, adding that every game against them is special regardless of the result.

لماذا أُدين مانشستر سيتي؟

وجدت لجنة مستقلة أنه بين موسمي 2009/10 و2017/18 أبرم النادي عقودًا "صورية" مع شركاء تجاريين ضمن "مخطط تمويل مموّه" لرفع إيراداته بشكل مصطنع بمقدار 830 مليون جنيه إسترليني، مخالفًا لوائح الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز المالية. وقد قدّم السيتي استئنافًا، ووصف الحكم بأنه غير آمن.

Haaland pide a los aficionados del Man City que mantengan la positividad

Erling Haaland ha pedido a los aficionados del Manchester City que se mantengan unidos y sigan sonriendo después de que el club fuera declarado culpable de todos los cargos relacionados con graves infracciones de las normas financieras de la Premier League. Su mensaje: "mantengámonos unidos, disfrutad del viaje y sonreíd".

El club ha presentado una apelación contra el veredicto de una comisión independiente. El City insiste en que es "inocente" y ha calificado la sentencia de "opinión", alegando que "contiene errores materiales claros, de derecho, de principio y de hecho, y no es segura".

La comisión concluyó que entre 2009/10 y 2017/18, el City firmó contratos "simulados" con varios socios comerciales como parte de un "esquema de financiación encubierto" para inflar artificialmente los ingresos del club en 830 millones de libras. También concluyó que el club presentó cuentas que ocultaban la verdadera situación de sus finanzas e incumplió "más de 100" normas de la Premier League.

En medio de la polémica extradeportiva, Haaland y sus compañeros se enfrentan al Liverpool en Anfield el domingo, en directo por Sky Sports. Haaland, hijo del exjugador del City Alf-Inge Haaland, afirma que él también se considera aficionado del City. "Me importa mucho la ciudad, debo decirlo. Me importan mucho los aficionados porque yo mismo soy uno de ellos", declaró.

Haaland también habló del partido, que tiene una gran rivalidad desde las épocas de Pep Guardiola y Jurgen Klopp. "Siempre es especial jugar contra el Liverpool", dijo, y añadió que cada partido contra ellos es especial, independientemente del resultado.
