The leicester forum person named the player as Josh Windass from Wednesday on a free. Kinda shows how up the creek they are financially

Seems like a level headed guy, excited for where this goes! https://learning.coachesvoice.com/cv/will-still-interview-reims-west-ham/

Robinson is with the first team squad for Arsenal

Thursday’s Premier League 2 play-off final missed out on being broadcast live on Sky Sports for the first time due to a dispute between Manchester City and Southampton over the game’s location. The disagreement followed City breaching Premier League 2 rules by not having the Etihad Stadium available to host the fixture.

I mean you can be doubtful but it will be next season as set out in the Athletic " If the 2023-24 case had proceeded as the authors of the Premier League rulebook had intended, this matter would have been resolved during the current season and any points deduction would have already been applied to Leicester’s total. But because the club refused to submit their 2023-24 accounts to the Premier League by December 31 last year, and then proceeded to fight these two jurisdiction battles, there is no chance of the Premier League being able to prosecute the club this season. So the matter will undoubtedly spill over into next season, when the Premier League, egged on by its EFL counterparts, is very likely to ask a new tribunal to apply a significant points deduction that would be applied in the Championship. We know Leicester were £19.4million over the allowed threshold for the three-year cycle ending with the 2022-23 season, when the limit was £105m. Their maximum figure for the three-year cycle up to the end of 2023-24, the season they won the Championship title to bounce straight back into the top flight, will only be £83m, as the limit for a season in the EFL is only £13m, not £35m. And because both the EFL and Premier League have prosecuted numerous PSR cases now, we also have a good sense of how many points a tribunal is likely to deduct for a significant breach, particularly if it is considered to be “aggravated” as opposed to “mitigated”. Given Leicester’s long fight to avoid being sanctioned by either body and their most recent failure to submit accounts to the Premier League, they are almost certainly going to be charged with an aggravated breach. This would suggest a starting position of them getting docked 12 points, though with a good chance that the Premier League will ask for even more. It is perhaps ironic that if Leicester had accepted their fate for 2023-24 sooner, and taken whatever punishment the Premier League sees fit, the points deduction would have already been applied and they would get to start next season in the second division with a clean slate. There is one further thing for the club to ponder, too, as the EFL has still not completely given up on the idea that it could pick up the 2022-23 PSR investigation it was unable to complete when Leicester won promotion last year. And if that is not depressing enough, the EFL will be all over the club’s accounts for next season, so the prospect of transfer embargoes and agreed budgets is very real.

They didn't have the most money this year? Maybe fluking a playoff campaign can be done, but there double relegation owes as much to the first miraculous promotion. Reversion to the mean. Birmingham spent £15m on a ST in league one and lo and behold they smashed the league. Wrexham have commercial revenue that is on par with top 4 championship. Zoom out enough and eventually money talks. There will always be outliers, we had a good few years giving the big spenders a bloody nose ourselves, but unless you can get a cash injection (City, Newcastle, Villa) the average ceiling over 10 years will be top 10 prem. Look at us, Leicester (champions league and a title win), Leeds, Burnley, Sheffield Utd. PSR compliance is an issue, as all the teams in the prem gave had a guaranteed 3 years at 105m losses whilst we have the championship year that guts the squad and caps our spend. It's not impossible, but will take a bit of luck, good investment and a set of tactics to maximise what we have. RUSSBALL could work for a mid table team, but our lack of quality showed up. Reduce the game to smaller margins, outwork the opposition and run further than them. Whether that's high press, low block or whatever.

Top three in the Championship had the most money, that's why they did well. The only easily identifiable metric to estimate success is paying the most wages - the rest is circumstance.

Likely to be off the back of the Talkshite 'rumour' (Crooks). Can't imagine we will hear any update until we are a championship club officially in a few weeks. Players won't be back until July in any case

'Leicester have also faced issues off the field. The threat of breaching PSR has hung over the club like a dark cloud. The Premier League is still in arbitration over their legal dispute. The EFL is also expected to closely examine Leicester after taking action for the club exceeding the upper loss threshold in their PSR calculations relating to the 2023-24 promotion season. Leicester were placed under a transfer embargo because of concerns over their projected accounts for that season, and the EFL is considering its next move."

Not looking good for Leicester and PSR / EFL finance rules https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/04/20/leicester-city-relegated-doomed-season-inside-story/

I mean Rohl is being touted for the Leicester amd Leipzig job by his agent, and is the obvious championship manager currently operating above their level in the table. Also it's Rohl

Who then?

Answering for them , as we have now: Ramsdale KWP THB Bednarek Welington Ugochukwu downes Dibling fernandes sulemana Onuachu

In Meghoma and SAA we spent £1m on youngsters we sold for £12m - £20m if Add ons are met. Strikes me they both left Tottenham at 16 as were keen to fast track to the top, so probably agitated to move from us when that didn't happen instantly and wouldn't sign extensions. Yeah we will waste this money probably, but in isolation not something we could fully control and a tidy profit on players we already nicked at age 16.
