AdminLeicester City are facing another summer of uncertainty after a disastrous campaign ended with relegation to League One just a year after dropping out of the Premier League.
Gary Rowett was brought in during February in an attempt to rescue the season, but the former manager could not prevent the Foxes from slipping further into crisis.
Leicester eventually finished 23rd in the Championship table, with a six-point deduction for breaching profit and sustainability rules proving hugely damaging to their survival hopes.
Attention has already turned towards rebuilding for next season, although speculation surrounding possible outside investment has added another layer of uncertainty at the King Power Stadium.
Reports have suggested that a consortium with links to property investment is interested in purchasing a stake in the club, while also attempting to acquire both the King Power Stadium and Leicester’s Seagrave training ground.
However, Leicester supporter Jamie Preston believes there is little truth in the rumours and insists owner Aiyawatt “Top” Srivaddhanaprabha has no intention of walking away.
“The news of the consortium has come out at a strange time, to be fair,” Preston told Football League World.
“I think it’s all fake news.
“I’m not sure Top would want to sell some of his shares, I don’t think he’ll want to sell any of the club, to be honest.”
Despite fan unrest and financial concerns, Leicester are now expected to focus fully on securing an immediate return from League One next season.
