This time, it's indeed finished. The Stade Malherbe de Caen will evolve next season in National. The relegation of the Normans was officially acted on Friday evening, after their heavy defeat at home against Martigues (0-3), on the occasion of the 31e Ligue 2 day.
Acquired last summer by Kylian Mbappé and its clan, via their Coalition Capital Investment Fund, the SMC risks knowing some upheavals in the coming weeks. First of all on the financial level since the Norman training will lose big with this descent at the amateur level.
To maintain its status as a professional club, the club will be forced to drastically reduce its payroll. Departures of players and staff members are therefore inevitable. In addition, Kylian Mbappé will have to partially fill the institution's structural deficit, estimated at 11 million euros last season.
Mbappé on the point of spreading der Zakarian
According to daily information The teamthe current president appointed by the Mbappé clan, Ziad Hammoud, should keep his post. Like the sports director, Reda Hammache.
On the other hand, many changes are expected in the sports sector. No less than 13 players are at the end of the contract and loan next June. In addition, Michel Der Zakarian, who arrived last February to try to relaunch the maintenance operation, should be thanked. The SMC would now like to rely on its training to promote young talents and go up as quickly as possible in Ligue 2.
