Arteta Says His Conscience Is Clear Over Man City Years

Mikel Arteta says he has a clear conscience about his time at Manchester City, even as the club's serious breaches of financial rules continue to hang over the Etihad. The Arsenal manager spent several years as a coach under Pep Guardiola before leaving for Emirates Stadium, and he was asked to reflect on that period when the subject of the charges came up.

The Premier League brought 115 alleged breaches of its financial rules against City in 2023, covering a stretch of seasons that overlaps with Arteta's years at the club. City have denied every charge and have said they will defend themselves. Arteta's comments do not change the case itself. They do show how the most senior figures who worked at the club during that time are choosing to frame their own involvement.

For Arsenal supporters, the remarks are a reminder that Arteta's past at City still draws questions, especially while the case remains unresolved in the public eye. Anyone following the story should check the latest official updates, since the outcome of the proceedings may have moved on since this was written.
