City, recently crowned champions for a fourth time in a row and the sixth time in seven years, will face off in an arbitration hearing between June 10 and 21, with the club believing that the APT rules passed in February are unlawful.

When Newcastle United were acquired by the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF) back in late 2021, by December of that year new rules around APT had been voted on by clubs.
