City have been banned from European competition for the next two seasons by UEFA due to “serious breaches” of their financial fair play rules.

A commission could deduct points retrospectively, meaning their 2014 title win may be in danger.
 
City won the league in the 2013/2014 season in one of the closest title races in recent years, finishing on 86 points- just four ahead of their nearest challengers Liverpool.
