Fans can’t believe what Leicester posted after relegation from the Premier League confirmed with Liverpool loss

Fans were left stunned by what Leicester City posted to X after their relegation to the Championship was confirmed following a 1-0 defeat against Liverpool on Sunday.

Leicester City were officially relegated to the Championship on Sunday after they sustained a 1-0 loss against Liverpool thanks to a Trent Alexander-Arnold strike at the King Power.

The Foxes started the campaign with Steve Cooper as head coach before he was sacked and replaced by Ruud van Nistelrooy in late November.

However, the former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward failed to make a positive impact on the 2015/16 Premier League champions, seeing his side win just three of their 22 league games since he arrived at the club.

"I'm very disappointed that it's a definite now,” Van Nistelrooy told BBC Radio 5 Live after the result.

“We kept hoping and fighting, but over the last weeks we saw the gap growing.

"Then you see it coming, although we never gave up, and we shifted the focus towards the future to use these games and finish the season as best as possible. Next season, the Championship will start, and it is my job to do the best things possible for the club.

"I'm working in the coming weeks, it is my job to do everything in the best interests of Leicester City."

When asked about his future, he added: "I'm waiting on the clarity of the club and how they want to continue. It is the goal to lead the club. I have to wait on how the club sees things and take it from there."

But fans were left stunned by what the club posted to their official social media channels after the match against Liverpool.

At 6:29 pm (BST), Leicester posted a generic photograph of the King Power, accompanied by the caption: “Today’s result means our place in the 25/26 Championship has been confirmed.”

And fans could not help but react on social media.

One fan said: "2 relegations in 3 years, useless summer signings outside of BEK, and 2 of the worst managerial appointments that could’ve been made."

Another added: "Announced it like it’s good."

While a third explained: "What a way to say that 'You've been relegated'."

As fourth commented: "Kudos to the admin to make it sound like a good thing."
