Enzo Maresca: Leicester City manager on promoted club’s finances

Boss Enzo Maresca is relying on Leicester City’s legal team to ensure the transfer embargo the club is under will not hinder preparations for their Premier League return.

The Foxes were sanctioned by the English Football League in March, a day after the Premier League charged the club for alleged profit and sustainability rule breaches relating to their last three seasons in the top flight.

The embargo on their transfer activity, which will also impact their ability to re-sign out-of-contract players such as leading scorer Jamie Vardy, will remain in place until 6 June when they are officially ratified as a Premier League club.

The Premier League was approached by BBC Sport to clarity if they would adopt the punishment after that, but they said “we aren’t commenting on this at the moment”.

Maresca addressed the situation ahead of Saturday’s final game of the season against Blackburn Rovers and told BBC East Midlands Today: “In terms of the embargo or this kind of problems, it’s not my job, it’s not my business, and there are lawyers in charge for that.

“And also, I don’t have any idea. Hopefully we can find a good solution.”
