曼彻斯特市申诉：俱乐部将主张赞助协议来自阿布扎比政府 曼彻斯特市针对英超联赛的裁决提出申诉，其结果取决于俱乐部的说法，即相关赞助协议来自阿布扎比政府。
Man City appeal: Club will argue sponsorship deals came from Abu Dhabi government Manchester City's appeal against the Premier League's verdict hinges on the club's claim that its sponsorship deals came from the Abu Dhabi government.
曼彻斯特市被裁定115项指控中的114项指控成立 在被认定违反财务规则后，曼彻斯特市将提出申诉，主张关键赞助协议的资金来自阿布扎比政府，而非俱乐部老板。
Manchester City were found guilty of 114 of the 115 charges against them Manchester City will claim that key sponsorship deals were funded by the Abu Dhabi government, rather than the club's owners, as part of an appeal after being found to have breached financial rules.
周二确认，独立委员会裁定，曼彻斯特市在2009-10赛季至2017-18赛季期间违反了英超联赛的财务规定，因此所有相关指控均成立。曼彻斯特市多次否认有罪，并表示打算在周五前提出申诉。
It was confirmed on Tuesday that an independent commission had found City guilty of all charges relating to breaches of the Premier League's financial regulations between the 2009-10 and 2017-18 seasons. City have repeatedly denied guilt, and signalled an intent to lodge an appeal by Friday.
该俱乐部被认定在老板的协助下，通过“虚假”赞助协议人为推高收入。
The club was found to have artificially inflated revenue through "sham" sponsorship agreements with the help of its owners.
据称，阿布扎比联合集团（ADUG）——一家属于阿拉伯联合酋长国副总统兼总理谢赫·曼苏尔的私人投资公司——将商业协议的价值注资至8.3069亿英镑，实施了一项“变相资助计划”。有人认为，这使俱乐部看似遵守了英超联赛和欧洲足联的规定。
Abu Dhabi United Group (ADUG) - a private investment company belonging to United Arab Emirates vice-president and deputy prime minister Sheikh Mansour - was said to have topped up the value of commercial deals as part of a "disguised funding scheme" to the scale of £830.69m. This, it was argued, enabled the club to appear to comply with Premier League and Uefa financial rules.
然而，据《每日邮报》和《泰晤士报》最先报道，消息人士告诉BBC体育，曼彻斯特市预计将向申诉委员会证明，有证据显示流向赞助方的资金来自阿布扎比政府，而非阿布扎比联合集团。
However, as first reported by the Daily Mail and Times, sources have told BBC Sport that City are expected to tell an appeal board that they have evidence showing the money directed to sponsors came from the Abu Dhabi government, rather than from ADUG.
独立委员会在调查结论中驳回了这一说法，称其“不属实”，并表示：“我们得出结论，这只是俱乐部在事发很久以后编造出来的‘解释’，企图模糊并掩盖变相资助计划的真相。”曼彻斯特市声称，该委员会的决定存在“明显且实质性的错误，包括法律、原则和事实错误，因此该决定并不稳妥”。
The independent commission rejected this argument as "untrue" in its findings, saying: "We concluded that it was an 'explanation' that the club had concocted well after the event in an attempt to obscure and conceal the realities of the disguised funding scheme." City have claimed the commission's decision contained "clear material errors, of law, principle and fact, and is unsafe".
曼苏尔是阿布扎比统治家族成员，也是阿联酋总统谢赫穆罕默德·本·扎耶德·阿勒纳哈扬的弟弟。阿布扎比联合集团于2008年收购了曼城。英超联赛规则允许国有实体赞助俱乐部。
Mansour is a member of the ruling family of Abu Dhabi, and the brother of UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. ADUG took over City in 2008. Premier League rules allow state-owned bodies to sponsor clubs.
周六，曼城主席卡尔杜恩·穆巴拉克提到了他所称支持该俱乐部清白主张的“无可辩驳的证据”。
On Saturday, City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak referred to "irrefutable evidence" that he claimed supports the club's claims of innocence.
曼城的主赞助商阿提哈德航空表示，正在考虑对英超联赛采取法律行动，并声称委员会调查结果的公布具有“破坏性影响……尽管该航空公司并未在经过编辑而已公布的调查结果中被点名”。
City's principal sponsor Etihad Airways has said it is considering legal action against the Premier League, claiming the release of the commission findings had "damaging implications…despite the airline not being named in the redacted published findings".
这家阿联酋国有的国家航空公司表示，“它明确拒绝任何暗示该航空公司曾参与不正当商业安排的调查结果、结论或暗示”。
The UAE's state-owned national airline said "it categorically rejects any finding, conclusion or implication that suggests the airline has ever been involved in improper commercial arrangements".
阿提哈德航空由主权财富基金穆巴达拉（L'Imad）所有，该基金由阿布扎比王储（阿联酋总统之子）担任主席。当BBC体育频道联系英超联赛时，对方拒绝发表评论。
Etihad is owned by sovereign wealth fund L'Imad which is chaired by the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, the son of the UAE president. The Premier League declined to comment when contacted by BBC Sport.
