Leicester City's Thai owners are seeking $384 million for the club and a wider portfolio of football and property assets. The sale package includes Leicester's men's and women's teams, its Category One academy, King Power Stadium, and the club's Seagrave training centre.
What's Included in the Sale?
The package also includes Belvoir Drive, now used by the women's team, and land outside King Power Stadium that the club acquired for £11.6 million as part of a proposed stadium expansion.
Why is the Club Up for Sale?
Leicester's sporting decline and financial position are expected to reduce the price investors are prepared to pay below the $384 million figure sought by the owners. The club's four latest sets of accounts since 2021 recorded losses of £92.5 million, £89.7 million, £19.4 million, and £71.1 million respectively.
What's the Current State of the Club?
As of the final 2025 table, Leicester City stood 23rd in the Championship with 46 points, 12 wins, 16 draws, and 18 losses from 46 games, with a recent form of WDDLL. The club has scored 58 goals and conceded 68, resulting in a -10 goal difference, and is 49 points behind leaders Coventry.
What's Next for Leicester City?
The sale process follows four seasons of deteriorating results on and off the pitch and increasing frustration among Leicester supporters. The family's emotional connection to Vichai had previously been expected to keep it committed to returning Leicester to the Premier League before considering an exit. The Athletic now reports that the Srivaddhanaprabha family has decided to market Leicester and the wider portfolio, although no transaction or buyer has been confirmed.
