Bad news for Olympique Lyonnais, Amiens and Toulouse. The three clubs saw their appeals dismissed by the Paris administrative court, which declared itself incompetent to contest the decision of the Professional Football League (LFP) to stop the competitions. However, the legal battle is not over because the three parties want to go before the Council of State.
“The LFP has noted with satisfaction the rejection of the appeals brought by Olympique Lyonnais, Amiens SC and Toulouse FC before the judge of summary proceedings of the Paris administrative court. The latter logically retained, by three orders made this Friday afternoon, that the decisions of general scope taken by the League’s Board of Directors on April 30 could only be challenged before the Council of State, which is competent to hear acts of a regulatory nature taken by authorities with national jurisdiction such as the LFP ”, explains the League in its press release.
