Leicester referred over alleged EFL financial breach

Related Topics: Leicester, Leicester City

Leicester City have been referred to an independent commission by the Premier League for an alleged breach of EFL financial rules while they were in the Championship in the 2023-24 season.

A tribunal also upheld a decision that the Premier League could not punish the Foxes for breaching Premier League profit and sustainability rules for the 2022-23 season as the club had been relegated from the top flight at the end of that campaign.

However, the same tribunal decided that the Premier League does have jurisdiction to investigate the club for breaching EFL rules in 2023-24.
