Leicester City win appeal over alleged breach of Premier League PSR rules
Charge could have led to a points deductionPremier League ‘very disappointed’ by decision
Leicester have won their appeal against a decision that could have led to a points deduction for an alleged breach of Premier League profit and sustainability rules.
The Premier League said it was “surprised and disappointed” by the move to uphold the Foxes’ appeal. An independent appeal board found that Leicester’s accounting period – after it was claimed the club exceeded the permitted £105m threshold – ended on 30 June, 2023, after the club were relegated from the top flight.
