Manchester City have successfully overturned their two-year ban from European club competitions.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) announced the club were cleared of “disguising equity funds as sponsorship contributions”.

Uefa issued the ban in February after ruling City had committed “serious breaches” of Financial Fair Play regulations between 2012 and 2016.

City’s fine has been cut from 30m euros (£26.9m) to 10m euros.

City said the decision was “validation of the club’s position and the body of evidence that it was able to present”. https://9jabet.bet/2020/07/13/manchester-city-overturn-two-year-ban-from-european-competition-on-appeal-to-cas/

Dubai Police have seized Dh150 million ($40.9m) in cash and more than a dozen luxury cars in the arrest of an Instagram celebrity accused of online fraud and money laundering.

In a video shared by the Dubai Media Office explained how the Police arrested Nigerian gang leader Ramon Olorunwa Abbas, known as Hushpuppi.

Olalekan Jacob Ponle, known as Woodberry, was also arrested along with ten other men in a operation involving six police SWAT teams.

Along with 13 luxury cars, valued at an estimated Dh25m ($6.8m), police confiscated 21 computers and 47 smartphones.

Fans on big screens and specific cameras to celebrate towards are some of the “broadcast enhancements” that will be used when the Premier League season restarts this week.

Some viewers will also be given the option of listening to games with or without artificial crowd noise.

Nigerians should be ready to pay high or low prices for petrol following the price liberalisation scheme currently in place, the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency said on Monday.

The PPPRA is also engaging with the Central Bank of Nigeria to determine the applicable foreign exchange rates for the importation of petroleum products by oil marketers.

The agency’s Executive Secretary, Abdulkadir Saidu, said these while answering questions on the new PMS price regime in Nigeria.

He said, “What we have in place is a market reflective pricing system. Petroleum products prices will be adjusted in line with market realities and the result is what we see presently with prices on the downward slide.

“Accordingly, price will naturally be adjusted to reflect a true picture of market fundamentals at any particular period, high or low.”... https://9jabet.bet/2020/04/28/be-ready-to-pay-higher-for-fuel-pppra/
