The upheaval surrounding Manchester City in recent days could have consequences beyond the club, with Manchester’s bid to host the 2040 Olympic and Paralympic Games potentially affected.
The entire United Kingdom is awaiting the final sanctions in the case involving Manchester City. However, their impact may extend to the city itself and its hopes of staging the Games in 2040.
If Manchester loses the opportunity to put forward its candidacy, Liverpool could become the second British city to host the Olympics after London, which has staged the event three times.
The UK government has been considering which of the two major northern cities should be given the honour of submitting a bid, according to derbyderbyderby.it.
