Leicester City have been condemned to an immediate return to the Championship after their relegation from the Premier League was confirmed with a 1-0 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday.

It marks the second relegation in three years for Leicester, who earned an immediate return to the top flight last season as winners of the Championship.

It has been a struggle from the start this season, though, for the 2015-16 Premier League winners.



They failed to win any of their first six games and sacked manager Steve Cooper after 15 games with the team in 16th position.

Leicester turned to former Man United assistant Ruud van Nistelrooy to steer the club to safety but the appointment did nothing to turn around the team's fortunes.

The team went into Sunday's game as the first team in England's top four divisions to lose eight consecutive home games without scoring a goal.
