El Nacional publishes an analysis titled 'Radiografía de una crisis: ¿qué pasa con el Manchester City?', examining the English club's current slump and what lies behind its poor run of form. The piece frames City's troubles as a full-blown crisis and breaks down the sporting problems at the Etihad, drawing attention from football fans discussing the club's decline.

Reports in Spain say Rodri is not the only factor prompting a young Barcelona player favoured by coach Hansi Flick to consider leaving the club, with increased competition for places at the heart of his doubts. El Nacional reports the midfielder's situation is complicated by the depth of options in his position, raising questions about his future at the Camp Nou.

The Premier League has concluded that Manchester City made "simulated contracts" and altered its financial accounts, according to El Nacional. The finding marks a new development in the long-running dispute between the league and the club over alleged breaches of financial rules. Reactions are focusing on what sanctions, if any, the club could now face and how this reshapes the debate over financial fair play in English football.

Manchester City maintains it is innocent in its financial irregularities case, according to El Nacional. The English club continues to reject allegations of breaching financial rules, a dispute that has drawn sustained attention across football given the potential for points deductions or other sanctions if the claims against the club are upheld.
