The affair of supposed questionable transfers continues to concern FC Nantes and the Kita family.

As happens very often, almost all the time, the accused denies it. Waldemar Kita used this first defense argument in the questionable transfer affair which affects FC Nantes and its president.

The owner of the Canaries “ vigorously contests the alleged facts“, specified the Rennes prosecutor, in charge of the case and questioned by West France. The FCN was indicted as a legal entity on September 21, the regional media revealed this Friday.

The Ligue 1 club is suspected of having worked with agents knowing that they did not have a valid license, over a period from 2015 to 2022.

The Rennes public prosecutor’s office evokes the establishment of “false scouting contracts and erroneous mentions on player contracts aimed at remunerating the services of sports agents that they knew were illegal”.

In June, Franck Kita, son of the boss and deputy general manager of FC Nantes, and two agents were indicted for this affair.
