EPL: Man City claim victory in first legal battle against Premier League
Manchester City has won its legal dispute with the Premier League over the Associated Party Transaction, APT, rules.
The ruling came after an Arbitral Tribunal deemed several aspects of the Premier League’s handling of the APT regulations to be unlawful.
This was confirmed in a statement released by City on Monday.
The champions expressed gratitude to the members of the Arbitral Tribunal for their work and considerations and welcomed the findings.
“The club has succeeded with its claim: the Associated Party Transaction (APT) rules have been found to be unlawful, and the Premier League’s decisions on two specific MCFC sponsorship transactions have been set aside.
“The tribunal found that both the original APT rules and the current (amended) APT rules violate UK competition law and the requirements of procedural fairness,” the statement said.
The tribunal claimed that the APT rules were structurally unfair and that the league was specifically unjust in how it applied those rules to the club in practice.
