Manchester City chairman Khaldoon al-Mubarak has made it clear they do not agree with UEFA's finding that they've breached financial fair play laws.
Khaldoon insists their financial is already sustainable.
"We have a sustainable project today, in Manchester and across the board in the City Football Group," he said.
"We have zero debt. We don't pay a penny to service any debt. For me, that is a sustainable model.
"However, our friends at UEFA seem to believe otherwise. They have their view, we have ours.
"I disagree with their views, but we are pragmatic and one thing our fans need to know, we will do, as always, what is best for this club and the fans and if that means sometimes we have to take a pinch, we will take a pinch and move on."
