Liverpool are set to take over as Premier League champions from Manchester City this seasonAn inquiry into claims that employees of Liverpool accessed Manchester City's scouting database has been closed by the Football Association. A settlement agreed by the two club was taken into account, the FA said. Liverpool made a £1m payment to City in 2013, reported the Times, although neither side has commented on the case. The FA said it had "carefully considered" information from both clubs and decided "not to progress the investigation". "This is due to a number of factors including the age of the alleged concerns and the settlement agreed by the two clubs involved," it added.
