Manchester City have been banned from European club competition for the next two seasons for "serious breaches" of UEFA's club licenses and financial fair play rules.

The state's ruling Premier League champions will face 30 min. Euro (£ 25m) has been fined.

The decision game can be appealed to the arbitration court.

Manchester City says they are "disappointed but not surprised" by the "biased" decision and will appeal.

The club's Independent Adjudicatory Chamber of Financial Control (CFCB) said the city was "increasing its sponsorship revenue in its account and had broken the rules on break-even information submitted to UEFA between 2012 and 2016 and the club had failed". To assist in research "

It has been reported that the city could also face a reduction in Premier League points as the league's FFP rules are the same - in any case not really the same - as in UEFA's.

However, punishment does not affect the city women's team.

La Liga president Javier Tebas praised UEFA for "finally taking decisive action".

"For the future of football, it is necessary to enforce the rules of financial fair play and punish economic doping," he said.

"For years we have been calling for tough action against Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain. Finally, we have a good example to work with and hope to meet more. It's never been slower than before."
