Manchester City has secured a notable transfer by signing Girona winger Savio who was on loan from Troyes a club affiliated with City Football Group. This transfer highlights the challenges and controversies surrounding multi-club ownership in football. Despite regulations aiming to ensure fair market value, the deal raises questions about the potential for manipulation within football empires.
City Football Group led by Manchester City is a prominent example of such ownership structures. Other clubs like Newcastle, Manchester United and Chelsea are also entering this realm. The ongoing legal issues particularly the ‘115 charges’ against City add complexity to the situation.
The Savio deal coincides with Manchester City’s strong performance sparking concerns about the impact of multi-club ownership on fair competition. Despite ownership regulations it is unlikely that City will face significant consequences highlighting the unequal nature of clubs within the City Football Group.
