It's a new race against time and to find funding that begins. Berrichonne Football has seven months to convince the DNCG that its financial project is solid. This Tuesday, the institution considered that the efforts were not yet sufficient : the Castelroussin club is relegated as a precautionary measure to National 2. This means that Berri will end the season in National and that it will have to go before the DNCG again in June to know its fate. Furthermore, the DNCG also pronounces a control of the payroll and a ban on recruitment.
A 2025 plan must be presented in the coming days by the club. Should we expect a new economic strategy to reduce expenses and find new investors? We don't know yet. One thing is certain: significant savings have been made since the arrival of majority shareholder and president Benjamin Gufflet. The closure of the training center generated 600,000 euros in savings. The payroll of players and employees has been reduced by 2.3 million euros.
