Friday briefing: Leicester City and Premier League lodge appeals over six-point deduction

Leicester City and the Premier League have each filed appeals after an independent commission imposed a six-point deduction on the club for breaching the profitability and sustainability rules.

The Premier League is seeking a further sanction linked to Leicester’s delayed submission of their 2023/24 accounts. While the disciplinary commission acknowledged that Leicester delayed submitting their accounts, it did not treat the delay as an aggravating factor when determining the penalty.<
