Whistleblower Rui Pinto has announced that he will come forward with important news regarding large-scale football fraud on Friday at 18:00 BST. The Portuguese, who laid the foundation for the major investigation against Manchester City with his earlier revelations via Football Leaks, has chosen a poignant moment for his new statement.
The announcement coincides precisely with the official deadline by which the Premier League leaders must formally appeal the verdict of being found guilty of 114 of the 115 charges placed against them.
Pinto's timing is causing major unrest within the European football elite. Earlier this week, the Portuguese authorities officially terminated his status as a protected witness. Pinto subsequently hinted via social media that he possessed additional documents relating to influential executives and European powerhouses.
Meanwhile, the board at the Etihad Stadium maintains that the club is innocent and will provide convincing counterevidence. Nevertheless, a new batch of documents threatens to put further pressure on the reigning champion's already precarious legal situation.
