SportsWho is Man City whistleblower Rui Pinto and what has become of him?

Portuguese whistleblower and Football Leaks founder Rui Pinto supplied documents that became key evidence in the Premier League’s investigation into Manchester City’s alleged financial misconduct. City was found guilty of 114 of 115 charges, denies wrongdoing and is expected to appeal. Pinto has been under witness protection since 2020, but Portuguese police now consider the safety risk low and plan to end it despite his assault in April.
