There was to be no late twist in the tale as Leicester City were relegated from the Premier League on the final day of the 2022/23 season. Despite beating West Ham 2-1 in their pivotal encounter at the King Power Stadium, Everton's 1-0 victory over Bournemouth resulted in the Foxes dropping down to the Championship seven years on from their incredible Premier League title success.
Leicester will be joined in the Championship by Leeds United and Southampton after finishing 19th and 20th respectively. As a result of their relegation, Premier League clubs will be keeping close tabs on the three sides as they look to pick up a transfer bargain ahead of next term.
There will most certainly be a fire sale at Leicester, with James Maddison their most prized asset and one who is likely to bring in the most amount of money despite his contract status. Outstanding in his time with the Foxes after contributing 55 goals and 41 assists during his 203 appearances, it is no surprise to see why a number of clubs will be interested in acquiring the 26-year-old.
