In an interview with BBC Sports, the league's top chief, Richard Masters, said he believes "it is time now for the case to resolve itself".

This follows reports that an independent disciplinary commission is set to hear the case against City, who have been accused of breaching a staggering 115 charges between 2009 and 2018.

It has been 18 months since the Premier League announced the charges against the Citizens, with it believed the punishment could carry a severe points deduction or even a potential relegation for the club owned by Abu Dhabi royal Sheikh Mansour.

While he refused to confirm an actual date for the anticipated hearing, reports in England suggest the trial is likely to get underway in September, and that an outcome is expected early next year.
