"The   Club has always anticipated the ultimate need to seek out an   independent body and process to impartially consider the comprehensive   body of irrefutable evidence in support of its position."In December 2018, the UEFA Chief Investigator publicly previewed the   outcome and sanction he intended to be delivered to Manchester City,   before any investigation had even begun. The subsequent flawed and   consistently leaked UEFA process he oversaw has meant that there was   little doubt in the result that he would deliver.  The Club has formally   complained to the UEFA Disciplinary body, a complaint which was   validated by a CAS ruling.   "Simply put, this is a case initiated by UEFA, prosecuted by UEFA and   judged by UEFA. With this prejudicial process now over, the Club will   pursue an impartial judgment as quickly as possible and will therefore,   in the first instance, commence proceedings with the Court of   Arbitration for Sport at the earliest opportunity."</blockquote>
