Man City FA Cup final boss Roberto Mancini makes ‘double contract’ claim amid Stoke City anger

Former Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini stated that allegations surrounding his financial arrangements and a purported double contract are not his concern. The remarks follow reports that Manchester City was found guilty of Premier League financial rule breaches, including failing to provide full details of Mancini's compensation between 2009-10 and 2012-13.

The findings have drawn strong reactions from Stoke City figures who lost 1-0 to Manchester City in the 2011 FA Cup final. Former Stoke manager Tony Pulis expressed that he felt cheated, while former winger Jermaine Pennant called for the FA Cup trophy to be awarded to Stoke. Mancini addressed the matter ahead of a Nations League match with Italy, noting the subject has been discussed for years.
