Manager Pep Guardiola says he is glad the hearing into Manchester City's 115 charges for alleged breaches of the Premier League's financial rules will begin on Monday.
City were charged and referred to an independent commission in February 2023 following a four-year investigation.
It is alleged City breached the Premier League's financial rules between 2009 and 2018.
City strongly deny all charges and have said their case is supported by a "comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence".
"Start soon, and hopefully finish soon," Guardiola said of the hearing. "An independent panel will decide and I am looking forward to the decision.
"I'm happy it's starting on Monday. I know there will be more rumours, new specialists about the sentences. We're going to see. I know what people are looking forward to, what they expect, I know, what I read for many, many years.
"Everybody is innocent until guilt is proven. So we'll see."
