The controversy surrounding Abdoulaye Touré’s participation in the match between FC Nantes and SC Bastia continues to unfold. Following the decision of the Professional Football League’s Competitions Commission to withdraw the points earned by FC Nantes in that match and reallocate them to SC Bastia, FC Nantes has opted to escalate the matter by referring it to the Administrative Court.
In a statement released on the club’s official website, FC Nantes indicated that they have exhausted all internal avenues available within the LFP and will now pursue legal action by referring the decision to the Administrative Tribunal. This step comes after the club explored other options, including potential recourse to the National Olympic and Sports Committee (CNOSF).
The controversy stems from Abdoulaye Touré’s participation in the match while he was allegedly suspended, leading to the subsequent sanctions imposed on FC Nantes. As the club prepares to take its case to the Administrative Tribunal, the outcome of this legal battle remains uncertain.
