This model is obtained by extending the Standard Model (SM) by two heavy vector-like quarks (an $SU(2)_L$ doublet (singlet) with hypercharge $-5/6$ (-1/3)), two new scalars (a neutral and a singly charged one) and a gauged $L_\mu-L_\tau$ symmetry. The mixing of the new quarks with the SM ones, after electroweak symmetry breaking, does not only explain $Z\to b\bar b$ data but also generates a lepton flavour universal contribution to $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions. Together with the lepton flavour universality violating effect, generated by loop-induced $Z^\prime$ penguins involving the charged scalar and the heavy quarks, it gives an excellent fit to data ($6.1\,\sigma$ better than the SM). Furthermore, the charged scalar (neutral vector) gives a necessarily constructive tree-level (loop) effect in $\mu\to e\nu\nu$ ($\tau\to \mu\nu\nu$), which can naturally account for the CAA (${\rm Br}[\tau\to\mu\nu\nu]/{\rm Br}[\tau\to e\nu\nu]$ and ${\rm Br}[\tau\to\mu\nu\nu]/{\rm Br}[\mu\to e\nu\nu]$).arXiv:2010.14504CERN-TH-2020-177PSI-PR-20-18UZ-TH 40/20oai:cds.cern.ch:27430152020-10-27
