Championship: Leicester face threat of not qualifying for EPL, battle three-part war
Leicester City are currently embroiled in a crisis that threatens their participation in next season Premier League campaign.
The recent defeat to Bristol City on Good Friday marked Leicester’s fifth loss in eight matches, pushing them outside of the Championship’s automatic promotion places.
This downturn comes after holding a 17-point lead earlier in the season, raising concerns about their immediate return to the English top-flight.
Compounding their on-pitch struggles are the looming threats of sanctions from both the Premier League and EFL.
Allegations of breaching profit and sustainability regulations have placed the club under scrutiny, worsening their condition.
Thus, Leicester City find themselves engaged in a three-front battle: on the pitch, where results are not forth coming; off the pitch, where regulatory issues loom; and in the stands, where fans are undoubtedly feeling the pressure of the club’s predicament.
