The reasons behind Manchester City's stance against the Premier League Associated Party Transaction rules

While the issue of the 115 charges against Manchester City, brought by the Premier League, looms large, the two will face off before the independent commission later this year.

Those APT rules were introduced in an attempt to stop any plans to accelerate the growth of Newcastle’s commercial revenue by them leaning on simpatico relationships with big businesses that they had in the Middle East. Manchester City have now followed through with that threat and are taking action against the Premier League.The two issues are separate, and Manchester City’s pursuit of legal action against the Premier League is the result of the stricter rules brought in back in February around APT rules and fair market value.

“This is good for all the leagues, be it in England or the rest of Europe. I think you won't see the same level as we've seen in the past few years because of the level of regulations that have come into place over the last 12 months." The fact that a majority passed the most recent APT rules should be telling, with a large number of Premier League clubs either under full or partial North American ownership, with private equity invested.
