The article discusses FC Nantes facing difficulties in the Abdoulaye Touré case. Initially confident, the club has been accused by the Higher Appeal Commission of the French Football Federation (FFF) of fielding a suspended player. The FFF concluded that Nantes was wrong in the matter, and the appeal from FC Nantes was rejected, implying the potential withdrawal of three points from their victory against Bastia. FC Nantes is contesting the legitimacy of the player’s suspension, arguing that the FFF did not adhere to the Sports Code, which requires any sanction to be notified in writing via registered letter. FC Nantes plans to bring the case before the Administrative Court and the CNOSF.
