It is this Tuesday that Sochaux must go before the DCNG after appealing the decision which sent the club to the National. According to France Bleu, the Chinese owner has not brought a single euro and is letting the club slip into bankruptcy.

Samuel Laurent, general manager of FC Sochaux, may have made a return trip to China to ask Nenking to plug, as agreed, the hole of 10 million euros in the finances of the doubiste team, he does not did not win. Even though the club has tried to sell players and release others to ease the wage bill, it won’t be enough. Hervé Blanchard, journalist at France Blue Belfort-Montbeliardannounces that club staff have been warned that Nenking had not put anything in the boxes and had no intention of doing so.

In other words, the DNCG will therefore confirm its decision to send FC Sochaux to the National. But, it probably won’t stop there. Because with a hole to plug of 8 million euros within ten days, either Sochaux will find a buyer who will put this sum to take over the club, or it will be the filing for bankruptcy and a dive in National 3. Historic club of French football, FC Sochaux is in danger of collapsing.
