Leicester City's Thai Owners Put Club Up for Sale After Relegations
Leicester City, former Premier League champions, have been put up for sale by their Thai owners, King Power, following successive relegations to English football's third tier. The club faced a six-point deduction last season for breaching financial rules, contributing to their decline. King Power has engaged a US investment bank to find a buyer, with assets valued over £200 million. Chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha acknowledged responsibility for the club's situation and indicated structural changes ahead. Leicester begins its League One campaign this Saturday.
