Bordeaux dropped to the list of FIFA clubs, which prohibited the registration of new players from 27 February. RMC Sport informs about this.

For information, Dzherela, this is the tenth stretch of the next three transfer windows.

This sanction is related to the financial burden of Sporting Xihon, which received 1.5 million euros from Bordeaux in connection with the transfer of Pedro Diaz in 2023..

“We are categorically not familiar with legal analysis, since it is important that FIFA’s assessment is in accordance with national rules for bankruptcy procedures. We are required to pay transfer fees that were included prior to the restructuring plan adopted by the commercial court. This plan allows us to avoid paying the full amount of the transfer fee,” said the club’s lawyer, Mathieu Barandas..

The proposal by Gerard Lopez and his club to restructure the borg was confirmed by the end of 2025 by the Commercial Court of Bordeaux. Most creditors praised Lopez's brains for shortening his debt from 94 to 26 million euros, with the possibility of repayment in 11 years.

It appears that Bordeaux are willing to lift their FIFA fence before the upcoming transfer window. To this end, the club will submit two appeals: one to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), and the other to the national courts.

After 24 rounds, Bordeaux sits in another place in the standings of League National 2 (fourth division of France), while National has the fastest team – currently La Roche, who have six points more.
