Man City expect boss Pep Guardiola will have left the club before they are punished for over 100 financial rule breaches, according to reports.
Guardiola stated last May that if he had been lied to about the club's financial dealings that he'd "be out".
He said: "I said to them, 'If you lie to me, I am not here. I will be out'."
But according to The Athletic, there is already a growing expectation that Guardiola will not still be in charge by the time any potential sanctions are imposed on City.
