£59.3m–£81.4m
The title stays. The European story changes later.
Leicester's 2015/16 title is unchanged. Their financial effect comes later through European qualification changes in 2019/20 and 2021/22.

Every season counts — including seasons where the rebuilt table moves the club backwards.

Displayed season values are rounded. The total uses the underlying position-linked distribution calculation.
This is where the number changes gear.
Leicester City cross European qualification boundaries 2 times in the rebuilt tables.
Europa League qualification becomes Champions League qualification in the rebuilt table.
No Europe qualification becomes Conference League qualification in the rebuilt table.
European values use the lower-to-central methodology: comparable English non-winning UEFA distributions, converted to sterling. They model competition revenue, not a hypothetical run or trophy.
£0 — no survival reversal.
Relegation is tested separately. A position change only creates additional value if the club crosses the survival line.
What we can measure.
That's where the calculation stops. We don't add sponsorship, matchday income, player values, transfers, wages, managerial changes or longer-term consequences.
Those belong to the story. Not the calculation.
Their title is not part of this number, and negative league-position seasons remain in the calculation.
