It was a heartbreaking moment for Leicester City fans as the club’s relegation from the 2024/25 Premier League was officially sealed following their match against Liverpool on Sunday, April 20, 2025, at the King Power Stadium.
Heading into the clash, the Foxes were desperate for a win against the newly crowned Premier League champions.
Sitting 19th on the table with just 19 points, Leicester needed a miracle to close the gap on West Ham and escape the drop, with only six games—and a maximum of 18 points—left to play.
Their fate was sealed after the match, marking another low point in what has been a turbulent period for the club. They now join Southampton, who became the first side to be relegated this season following a 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on April 6, 2025.
This marks Leicester City’s second relegation in three seasons and their fifth overall from the Premier League. The previous relegations occurred in 1994/95, 2001/02, 2003/04, and most recently in 2022/23.
Despite the setback, the Foxes will now shift their focus to bouncing back in the 2025/26 Championship season, with hopes of making a swift return to top-flight football.
