Leicester City Appeals Premier League Ruling on PSR Breach, Faces Points Deduction

Jul 4, 2024, 04:28 PM

Leicester City has lodged an appeal after the Premier League dismissed the club’s challenge against the Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) jurisdiction. The independent commission ruled in favor of the Premier League, dismissing Leicester City's bid to avoid potential punishment for an alleged breach of the PSR rules. This decision brings Leicester City a step closer to a huge points deduction. The club faces an 'almost certain' points deduction, which could impact their upcoming Premier League campaign. Leicester City plans to appeal the ruling, setting the stage for an ongoing battle over the integrity of the PSR rules and the potential loss of credibility.
