The French Senate rejected the proposed 75% tax on high salaries in football. The rejection means that the law must return to the National Assembly for modifications before being presented to the Senate again for final adoption. Club leaders in Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 are hopeful that the law may be definitively rejected or that the modifications will be more favorable to their interests. The decision to reject the tax brings relief to football clubs and players who were concerned about the financial implications of such a tax.
