"Investigation" doesn't mean jack unless they end up being banned from European competition. PSG and Man City have been abusing FFP for years. Anyways the head of UEFA already announced that FFP has done its job of reducing the debts of clubs and now they can switch to the new FFP. This was a little after Elliott said they would appeal Milan's new punishment.
UEFA knows that FFP would fall under Elliot's assault. If TAS doesn't side with Eliott they can go to regular courts and show that FFP is against EU regulations as it stifles competition. Under FFP it is difficult for a club which isn't at the top to come up and join the top clubs. FFP is ant-competitive.
UEFA knows this so they will ultimately compromise with Elliott. Elliott has an army of crack lawyers and influencers on their payroll.
