Leeds United are “likely” keeping a close eye on Everton’s recent financial infraction and probable second-point deduction, with the danger of a compensation claim resurfacing, according to Leeds Live.
According to reports on January 15, Leeds, Southampton, and Leicester City had first delayed their claims owing to the continuing appeal procedure, but the fresh accusation may rekindle their interest.
This is especially true for Leeds, given the latest charge for a second infringement relates directly to the season the Yorkshire team was demoted from the Premier League.

That discussion was suspended by Everton‘s announcement that they would appeal the ruling, and Leeds were waiting for a resolution, but following a second charge for a season that directly impacts the club, it would not be surprising to see those negotiations resume.
According to original reports [Daily Mail, 3 October], the three clubs were prepared to seek a combined £300 million in compensation, but they later stated that they would prefer a negotiated solution [Daily Mail, 1 December].
However, the current breach has the potential to change everything again.
