Leicester City’s points deduction case will be fast-tracked once the Premier League transfers shares from last season’s relegated sides to the promoted clubs.

That is the view of finance expert Kieran Maguire, who exclusively told Football Insider that the Premier League will want to process Leicester’s case as quickly as possible to provide clarity before the start of the 2024-25 campaign.

The Foxes were charged with a breach of the Profit and Sustainability Rules in their 2022-23 accounts back in April.

The Championship winners posted losses of £89.7million in 2022-23 – their final year in the Premier League.

According to The Telegraph, Leicester could now face a record-breaking deduction of 15 points if they are found guilty of their breach.

Maguire believes progress will be made on the case once the Premier League has transferred shares to the promoted clubs.
