Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano tells the European Football Clubs (EFC) board that the club will “do everything” to clear its name as part of ongoing proceedings. Soriano says the process is likely to take years before reaching a conclusion, according to a source familiar with discussions relayed by Reuters.

The reports describe Soriano speaking at the EFC board meeting on Monday. One account adds that Soriano does not comment to reporters afterwards, while also indicating that the club views the procedure as lengthy and ongoing. The coverage focuses on the club’s commitment to disputing the issues at hand, without detailing new specific evidence or final timelines beyond that expectation.

Overall, the outlets align on the central message: Soriano addresses the EFC board, reiterates the club’s intention to clear its name, and frames the process as a multi-year undertaking. Differences are limited to how much context is provided around the meeting and Soriano’s public remarks.
