City stay within financial fair play rules

Manchester City’s spending spree this summer should not get them into trouble under financial fair play rules.   Although their gross spend has been £100m and could go up to around £150m if one more rumoured signing is made, their net spend is £35m.   Even if it went up to £85m, the sum would be spread out over the life of the players’ contracts.
