The investigation has lengthened several months and finally the club has been declared guilty for breaking the 'Fair Play Financial' and not collaborating in the process. Now it confronts to two years separated of the European competitions (campaigns 2020-21 and 2021-22) and 30 million euros of fine.

For the moment, what is official is that the 'sky blues' have announced that will appeal to the Court of Sportive Arbitration (TAS), that could detain temporarily the punishment waiting for a study in depth of the case. The precedents do not accompany to the English, that already have been able to check as they have shot the rumours on additional penalties in the Premier League and other evils that soon could arrive.

The culés are not the only that would call to the door of the 'citizens', since the distances between the most powerful groups of the old continent are increasingly narrow. In this peculiar free bar could take part others, like the Real Madrid and the PSG, the Liverpool, Tottenham, United or Arsenal, the Bayern of Munich and the renacidos Italian, like the mentioned Juve or the Inter of Milan.

It does time that activated the alarms and will take urgent measures to defend to the club, that does not want to see overwhelmed in full fight by the titles.
