Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has hit out at UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin, for saying that Europe's governing body were right to ban the English club from European competition in 2020.
City were hit with a suspension in February 2020 for what UEFA called "serious breaches" of Financial Fair Play, FFP, regulations.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport, CAS, eventually overturned the ban in June 2020.
Ceferin, who is a former lawyer, has said UEFA "know we are right".
His comment comes while City are also fighting allegations by the Premier League that the club are in breach of their own financial rules.
But speaking to the media today, Guardiola said: "As a lawyer that he is and president of UEFA, he should wait and after do whatever he wants.
"He has to respect it and he has to wait. He has a lot of jobs to do at UEFA. A lawyer should respect the procedure and understand we have a right to defend ourselves."
