Klopp 'Far From Preparing for a Title' After Man City Guilty Verdicts
Klopp said he is satisfied with Liverpool's past success as Manchester City faces possible penalties after an independent commission found 114 financial breaches.
- The Premier League confirmed on Tuesday that Manchester City is guilty of 114 financial breaches, prompting former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp to dismiss the prospect of his team being retrospectively awarded further titles.
- Among the breaches were the creation of "sham" contracts to inflate revenue, with Manchester City reducing costs by more than £900m over nine years covering the 2009-10 season to the 2017-18 campaign.
- Manchester City responded with a statement claiming they possess a 'comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence' to prove their innocence, and the club has until Friday, October 2, to formally appeal the commission's decision.
- If the appeal fails, potential sanctions include substantial fines, points deductions, or expulsion from the Premier League, with some calling for the club to be retrospectively stripped of titles won during that nine-year period.
- While Pep Guardiola broke his silence on Wednesday, Klopp is currently preparing his Germany squad for Thursday's Nations League fixture against Serbia, stating he is "absolutely fine with what we've achieved in Liverpool.
