Leeds to consider Leicester action

[Getty Images] Leeds United are considering their legal options over a historic breach of Profit and Sustainability Rules by Leicester City. The Yorkshire club were beaten to automatic promotion by Leicester in the 2023-24 season before going on to lose to Southampton in a Wembley play-off final. Leicester were later charged with breaking spending rules. A recent judgment has seen Everton ordered to pay Burnley £35m in compensation as a result of breaching spending rules. The Clarets argued the issue played a part in them being unable to avoid Premier League relegation when battling against Everton for survival in the 2021-22 campaign. The Toffees have appealed the decision after stating the club was "surprised and angered" by the ruling. Leeds are understood to be considering their position as to whether Leicester's rule breach hampered their own automatic promotion opportunity.
