AdminLeicester City’s desperate battle to avoid relegation from the Championship has been dealt another damaging blow after Simon Jordan claimed the club are already finished.
A decade on from their remarkable Premier League title triumph, Leicester now find themselves staring at a second relegation in three seasons.
Years of poor recruitment, financial uncertainty and weak leadership have dragged the club into a decline that few could have imagined at the King Power Stadium.
With only three matches remaining, the Foxes sit eight points adrift of safety and defeat against Hull City on Tuesday night would all but seal their fate.
Jordan did not hold back in his assessment while speaking on talkSPORT.
“There’s something rotten inside Leicester City. They’ve spent more time trying to tap dance their way around breaches of financial fair play, and they’ve stopped focusing what’s going on on the pitch.
“There’s good enough players in that dressing room to be nowhere near this. They’re done, they’re done, look who they’ve got to play.”
The former Crystal Palace chairman also insisted Gary Rowett cannot avoid responsibility for the collapse since replacing Marti Cifuentes.
“He’s got to look at himself. One win in 11 games is precisely the polar opposite of what they brought him in to do.
They’re all in it; the ownership model is in it, the players are in it, and the manager is in it. None of them should escape this.”
Leicester must now win their remaining matches and hope results elsewhere somehow go in their favour.
