Liverpool’s 32-month wait for justice may soon be over as the Manchester City verdict approaches.

The long and frustrating wait for answers in English football may soon come to an end — and no club has more reason to be invested than Liverpool.

According to Miguel Delaney of The Independent, a verdict on Manchester City’s 115 alleged breaches of Premier League financial regulations is expected this month. This would finally close a saga that has stretched for nearly three years and overshadowed multiple title races. Pep Guardiola previously suggested news would come in February or March 2025, but that timeline has long passed.

The Independent also notes that the recent resolution of the Associated Party Transaction (APT) case may have cleared the path for this main hearing to conclude, with senior Premier League officials now “bracing themselves” for the long-awaited ruling.

For Liverpool, 115 charges and 32 months of uncertainty represent more than just a governance issue — they touch on matters of fairness in football history. The Reds finished just one point behind City in both the 2018/19 and 2021/22 seasons, narrow defeats that feel even more significant given recent revelations.

Jurgen Klopp once joked that he’d “buy the beer” if Liverpool were ever awarded extra titles, even offering to host a “parade in my garden” should justice be done — comments that reflect how deeply fans care about this case, even without expecting trophies to be reassigned.

Delaney’s report emphasises that while the APT ruling clarified some financial guidelines, City’s 115 charges remain part of a separate and much larger legal process — one that could reshape the Premier League’s future.

City continue to maintain their innocence, but after nearly three years, Premier League lawyers are reportedly finalising the final details behind closed doors.

Whatever the outcome, for Liverpool and their supporters, this isn’t merely about one club’s alleged offences — it’s about upholding integrity in the league that defines them.
