LEICESTER SET FOR IMMINENT POINTS DEDUCTION VERDICT THAT COULD DECIDE RELEGATION FATE

Leicester City is already fighting to stay in the Premier League, and they could lose points, which would put them in much more danger.

Next week, Leicester City will find out if they will receive a points reduction, which would put their chances of finishing in the top division in jeopardy.

Whether Leicester has violated the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules will be revealed by the league. Currently, clubs are allowed to lose £105 million over three years; however, Leicester will lose less because they played in the Championship in 2023–24 after being relegated.

According to The Mail, Leicester may lose points if they violate the aforementioned rules the following week.

Furthermore, a deduction might be the end for Ruud van Nistelrooy’s team, who are now two points from safety and second from the bottom of the table.

In addition to their FA Cup third-round matchup against QPR on Saturday, the Foxes have important Premier League games against Crystal Palace and Fulham coming up next week. But while Van Nistelrooy tries to assist Leicester in maintaining their top-flight standing come May, all eyes will be on the next Premier League decision.

“I’ve had some really fruitful discussions with the hierarchy. Regarding this week’s circumstances, the Dutchman stated, “I had a lot of questions about these topics when I took the job.”

It was crucial for me to comprehend the club’s location, their desired destination, and my contribution to it.

“Since we began working together, I have not seen any indication that something is amiss. As said at the time, everything has turned out just as planned. We are in agreement as long as that remains the case. I don’t think that will change.

This weekend, Leicester will face QPR in an attempt to snap a challenging run of five successive losses.

Under Enzo Maresca, the Foxes won the Championship title last season, guaranteeing them an immediate return to the Premier League. Chelsea subsequently enticed the Italian away, and after just 12 games, Steve Cooper, his successor, was fired.
