Al Mubarak maintains confidence in the club's innocence, stating that they have faced challenges before and come out victorious. He also claims that there are still many who want to undermine the club's momentum, but they will not be given the opportunity. The alleged financial violations occurred between 2009 and 2018, with the club accused of violating Premier League rules that require "the utmost good faith" when declaring information that provides a true and fair view of the club's financial position.

The Premier League has yet to issue an official statement on the matter, with the independent commission's judgment still pending. The club could face various punishments, including fines, point deductions, suspensions, or even expulsion from the league.
