Leicester will play its first Premier League match this season against Tottenham, but before the start of the campaign, the Foxes learned that they could face a loss of points, The Mirror reports.
The club is being investigated for violating financial spending rules. One case is related to the violation of the Profitability and Sustainability Regulations (PSR) during Leicester's participation in the Championship. These rules are aimed at ensuring that clubs do not spend more than they earn, protecting teams from financial crises and maintaining a competitive balance in the league.
Despite the fact that the decision of the independent commission on this matter has not yet been made, Leicester could potentially start this season with a point deduction. It is worth recalling that last season Everton suffered a similar fate.
