Leicester Win Appeal Against Decision Over Alleged Breach Of Financial Rules
Leicester have won their appeal against a decision that an independent commission had jurisdiction to consider an alleged breach of the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules. The English top flight said late Tuesday it was "surprised and disappointed" by the move to uphold the Foxes' appeal, which means they are set to avoid a points deduction. An independent appeal board found that Leicester's accounting period -- after it was claimed the club had exceeded the maximum permitted 105 million pounds ($138 million) loss over a three-season period -- ended on June 30, 2023, after the club were relegated from the top flight.
