Premier League Standings: Hunting for Prizes from Manchester City Sanctions

Manchester City is currently in the Champions League zone for

next season. Pep Guardiola's team is still in second place by packing 54 in the

English League standings. Unfortunately they were sanctioned by UEFA.Manchester City are banned from appearing in the Champions League or EuropaLeague in the next two seasons.

Of course, the slot that belongs to Manchester City, if it succeeds in finishing in the top four, becomes a 'prize' for the team that finishes fifth in the final standings of the English League. At present, there are still many clubs that have the opportunity to compete for the 'prize' from Manchester City sanctions. They are, Tottenham Hotspur (40 points), Sheffield United (39 points), Manchester United (38 points), to Wolverhampton Wanderers (36 points). But all that will happen if an appeal made by Manchester City is rejected by the CAS or the Court of Arbitration for Sport. See the full English League standings on the next page.
