Life at Leicester City hasn’t been too glamarous this season.
With 14 games remaining, the Foxes are in a relegation dogfight and are currently losing the battle as they sit inside the bottom three.
Leicester fans will protest against Arsenal on Saturday as they continue to blame the club’s downfall on the owners of the Foxes.
The Blues are looking for anything that can provide them an advantage to keep them in the top flight but one rule that has hindered Ruud van Nistelrooy and co over the past couple of years is here to stay.
Premier League to keep PSR rules for next season
The Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules are set to remain in place for next season, as revealed by The Times.
Several clubs have voiced their concern about PSR and Leicester are one of three clubs embroiled in an ongoing case with the league.
Leicester avoided a PSR charge in November, but there is a high chance that the Foxes will still be at risk of breaching PSR in the future.
It’s news that won’t be welcome in the East Midlands given their previous experiences and could once again affect what they do in the transfer window.
Leicester signed one player in the transfer window last month after citing financial fears and history may repeat itself.
What is PSR?
PSR is a set of rules implemented to limit the losses that Premier League clubs can make over a three-year period.
The maximum amount teams are permitted to lose over a three-year period is £105m. There are some exceptions as to what you can lose, for example, investment in infrastructure, the youth team and the women’s team.
In the past Everton and Nottingham Forest have been charged, as well as Leicester, but the Foxes were the only one of the three teams who weren’t handed a points deduction as punishment.
