Manchester: Manchester City are still a long way off agreeing a settlement with UEFA over sanctions for breaking financial fair play rules, it can be disclosed.

The club have until the end of the week to agree to the sanctions or face the case being handed to a panel for a non-negotiable decision.

City are one of nine European clubs, also including Paris St Germain who are being dealt with for rule breaches, and it is understood they are one of those furthest away from reaching an agreement.
