Manchester City have taken legal action against the Premier League over new rules, introduced in December 2021 and revised in January 2024, governing "associated party transactions" (APTs). An arbitration tribunal will hear the case on June 10, and a decision is expected within two weeks of that date.

According to The Times, which has reviewed a 165-page document submitted by Abu Dhabi United Group-owned City, the club is arguing that such regulations violate competition law in the United Kingdom. They are also reportedly seeking monetary damages on the basis that for years, they were forced to comply with these rules.
