City Whistleblower Rui Pinto Offers UK Cooperation in Exchange for Protection

Rui Pinto, whose leaks helped trigger the Premier League's investigation into Manchester City's finances, is willing to assist UK authorities in exchange for personal protection. The whistleblower faces the loss of his current safeguarding arrangements in Portugal, and more documents relating to City's affairs may be made available if a security deal is reached. Further cooperation from Pinto could bring additional documents into the Premier League's ongoing investigation into Manchester City's financial affairs.
