Enzo Maresca said rival supporters could describe Manchester City as “cheats” while discussing pressure from the club's financial-rules case. The Guardian records this as the manager's hypothetical wording, rather than a new legal finding. City have appealed against the independent commission's ruling and continue to dispute the allegations. Ahead of the PSG match, Maresca stressed his team's football preparations, while Luis Enrique said the process should reach its final decision.
