FC Sochaux did not win their case before the Administrative Court of Paris, a priori, the last hope they had left to stay in Ligue 2. Which keeps Annecy.

FC Sochaux will not play in Ligue 2. The Administrative Court of Paris has rejected the club’s appeal, indicated Thursday evening France Blue Belfort-Montbeliard. In the wake of the decision that was Sochaux’s last hope, Romain Peugeot announced that he was throwing in the towel, he who had set up a project to save this historic French football club founded by his great-grandfather.

“We would like to point out that the solution we proposed is only viable in the Ligue 2 Championship and that a National 1 budget with the fixed costs of the club, even after restructuring, is simply not possible”, reacted Romain Peugeot in a press release, relayed by The Team.

The happiness of Annecy

It therefore seems that the Doubiste club is heading towards the National 3 Championship or filing for bankruptcy. At the same time, the Professional Football League (LFP) announced the draft of Annecy in Ligue 2, subject to the decision of the Administrative Court.

In compliance with the above, for reasons related to the local context, the very short preparation time and the good organization of the match, the FC Annecy-EA Guingamp match counting for the 1st day of Ligue 2 BKT will take place on Saturday August 5 at 7 p.m. behind closed doors”specifies the press release from the LFP.
