Here are your Manchester City evening headlines for Wednesday, June 15. La Liga president Javier Tebas has launched another attack on City, making a claim over their ability to sign Erling Haaland and confirming he has made a formal complaint to UEFA against the Blues.

Tebas is a long-standing critic of City and their financial model, despite the club being cleared at the Court of Arbitration for Sport in 2020 after UEFA charged them with breaching Financial Fair Play regulations.

Read what he said here. Pep Guardiola has been stressing the point for years, and Kevin De Bruyne was blunt when asked about his opinion of UEFA's decision to hold four Nations League games in June.

Now those four games are over, it's hard to argue that De Bruyne didn't have it spot on, with all countries showing tiredness and few showing much progress, even looking ahead to the World Cup.

For Guardiola watching on, he will have seen plenty to encourage him from a City perspective, but equally won't have seen much to persuade him that a longer break for his players would have been more beneficial.
