  In this short paper, we improve the result of Phong-Song-Sturm on
degeneration of Fano K\"ahler-Ricci solitons by removing the assumption on the
uniform bound of the Futaki invariant. Let $\mathcal{KR}(n)$ be the space of
K\"ahler-Ricci solitons on $n$-dimensional Fano manifolds. We show that after
passing to a subsequence, any sequence in $\mathcal{KR}(n)$ converge in the
Gromov-Hausdorff topology to a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton on an $n$-dimensional
$\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety with log terminal singularities.
