LONDON – Leicester City are riding high in the Championship, hopeful of a quick return to the Premier League. Regardless of whether they achieve promotion, they could start next season with a negative points total.
Having failed to submit their 2022-23 accounts, when they were an English Premier League club, the Foxes are alleged to be in breach of profit and sustainability rules. They are expected to join Everton and Nottingham Forest in being docked points.
