Manchester City Whistleblower Leaving Portugal

Rui Pinto, the Manchester City whistleblower who leaked thousands of documents, has revealed he is leaving Portugal due to fears for his safety. The Football Leaks founder claimed he received 'multiple death threats' and faces 'the serious risk of an assassination attempt' after Portuguese authorities terminated his participation in the country's witness protection program on Wednesday. sos-zagle.org.pl

His lawyers have announced they will appeal the decision, describing his situation as 'critical'. The development comes two days after Manchester City were found guilty of 115 charges by the Premier League, an investigation prompted by Pinto's leaks.
