🚨Court confirms Bordeaux's relegation to the sixth tier The Paris Administrative Court upheld the sanction imposed by the French Football Federation (FFF) against Girondins de Bordeaux. The ruling confirms the historic club’s definitive exclusion from the national championships, relegating it to compete in Régional 1, the sixth tier of French football. A financial rescue that fell through The ruling comes after the bankruptcy proceedings in 2024 and the loss of professional status. Although Gérard López sold his shares to Sparta Capital for a symbolic one euro, and the firm presented a plan with an investment of 10.6 million euros to settle debts, the court backed the disciplinary measure. An uncertain future in regional football With this judicial decision, the historic French side will have to begin a complex rebuilding process from amateur football, remaining completely outside the professional divisions for the 2026-2027 season.
