Leicester City is facing a charge from the Premier League for allegedly breaching profit and sustainability rules in the 2013-2014 season before their relegation. The breach could result in a points deduction during the next season, according to Sky Sports News.

Leicester’s financial accounts from that season, which will be made public later this month, are expected to reveal that they exceeded the permitted losses of 105 million over the previous three seasons. Similar breaches by Everton and Nottingham Forest led to formal charges and potential point deductions. If Leicester is punished, it could happen even if they are in the Championship, as there is a possibility of an agreement between the two leagues.

However, Leicester will not receive a points deduction this season and will not be affected in their efforts to promote from the Championship. The delay in the punishment and the change in rules after Leicester’s relegation are the reasons why they will not be punished this season.
