The Abdoulaye Touré affair, concerning the young Guinean player who allegedly played while under suspension, is set to be resolved this Wednesday as the competitions committee of the Professional Football League convenes to address the matter.
Abdoulaye Touré had reportedly participated in a match against Bastia on August 10, despite being under suspension at the time. This potential violation could lead to serious consequences for FC Nantes, including the loss of the three points earned in the match.
However, the final decision on the matter will not be made during the committee’s meeting today. According to reports from L’Equipe, if the committee decides to impose sanctions, FC Nantes intends to challenge the decision in the administrative court.
The club’s lawyer, Mr. Klatovsky, remains optimistic about the case, citing the argument that Touré’s suspension was not officially communicated through mail as a key factor in their defense. This legal contention suggests that FC Nantes may have grounds to contest any potential sanctions imposed by the league.
