Charge could have led to a points deductionPremier League ‘very disappointed’ by decision
Leicester City are poised to avoid a points deduction this season after winning their protracted legal dispute with the Premier League pertaining to an alleged breach of profitability and sustainability rules (PSR).
After Leicester’s appeal, an independent panel found there was no jurisdiction for the case to be heard. While the panel conceded PSR “are, in relevant parts, far from well drafted”, the decision is a major boost for Leicester and a blow for the league, who said it was “surprised and disappointed” at the result.
