The National Directorate of Management Control (DNCG), an entity of the Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP), made public the operating accounts, revealing the financial challenges faced by certain teams.
During that season, French Ligue 1 encountered difficulties in balancing its accounts, and several clubs reported losses. Lyon recorded the worst result, with a deficit of 28 million euros. Marseille reported a loss of 8 million euros, while Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) incurred a deficit of 5 million euros.
