Relegated Leicester Referred to Independent Commission for Financial Breaches
- Leicester City was charged by the Premier League on May 20, 2025, for alleged financial breaches during the 2023-24 season while in the Championship.
- This charge follows a legal background where Leicester successfully appealed earlier PSR breach charges for 2022-23, disputing Premier League jurisdiction due to relegation.
- The Premier League claims jurisdiction over Leicester’s breaches involving profitability and sustainability rules and failure to provide annual accounts by December 31, 2024.
- Leicester’s statement said it intends to cooperate but will not comment further due to confidentiality, while the Premier League warns of possible points deductions like last season’s Everton and Nottingham Forest penalties.
- The referral to an independent commission suggests ongoing scrutiny that might affect Leicester’s upcoming Championship campaign with potential financial sanctions.
