Bloomberg reports that Manchester City held early-stage settlement talks with the Premier League before the guilty verdict became public. The deal would reportedly have centred on a sizeable financial payment instead of relegation and the stripping of titles. The talks quickly fell apart, with City consistently proclaiming its innocence. Here’s the full timeline, what we know and don’t know, how Chelsea’s settlement worked (a record £10.75m fine and no points deduction), what the commission found, and what could happen at the appeal and sanction hearing.

City maintain their innocence and have appealed. Both City and the Premier League declined to comment on the talks. No sanction has been decided.
