Man City whistleblower to lose witness protection amidst death threats : https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/arti ... vrp78ddvqo

He wants The People to stump up 3m euros to help him relocate. Here's his GoFundMe if you want to donate, Kai? https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-save-ru ... stleblower

Recommend he avoids Benfica

He is welcome to crash on my couch if he wants

But sounds like the UK authorities might help him out : https://www.theguardian.com/football/20 ... protection

I'd be surprised if this happens, because I thought there was an open criminal investigation ongoing against him in the UK?

But if he is allowed sanctuary here, I wonder if he will give The People back the 22k euros donated so far?

In any case, City fans should be praying nothing happens to him, as they'll inevitably get stuck with the blame if it does.

Since his tweet directly linked City to him losing his witness protection just hours after the verdict landed. I wouldn't take his plea so flippantly, as a mere cash grab.

He has arguably leaked far more dangerous schemes like the Luanda Leaks. Alongside exposing the tax evasion structures of Messi and other superstars, which did result in criminal tax convictions.

There were the Ronaldo rape allegations too, where he leaked the private NDA that forced US police to reopen the investigation. He exposed the Super League plans etc.

It's just a bonkers story.

I don't think the reason why he was in witness protection and fears for his life has anything to do with the Man City case.

Do you know anything about him?

Entirely reasonable take for a City fan. I wouldn't be thinking clearly under this much duress either.

... looks like Man City are going to suffer a painfully slow death over the next few months

A lot of it doesn't really make sense does it?

The outcry of the Aguero moment is tainted why? there was no FFP in 2012

The panels findings don't make sense, Sheikh Mansour knew nothing about the disguised funding, I mean I know he's rich but come on sure hes going to notice a billion quid missing

The panel have City down as getting £16m from Abu Dhabi sponsors in 2012 but only getting £12m in 2018, City were getting less with Pep at the helm and after all the trophies they had won, again makes no sense.

Arsenal were getting £42 million a season from Emirates for shirt/ground sponsor in 2004, City were getting £40m a season from Etihad in 2009 for the same plus also the training ground named, was it really inflated
