Manchester City's financial rule-breaking may have taken place hundreds of miles from east London, but according to new calculations from the BBC, West Ham United are among the clubs that can legitimately point to a sizeable financial cost.
According to an independent Premier League commission, Man City artificially inflated its revenues and reduced its costs by more than £900million between 2009/10 and 2017/18. The estimated value of the Premier League placing money West Ham may have missed as a consequence of finishing below a Man City side is circa £9.9million.
