The DNCG relegates Bastia to National as a precautionary measure

Bastia has had a decent start to the season so far. After 14 days (13 matches played for Sporting), the Corsican club occupies 11th place in Ligue 2, three points ahead of the play-off headquarters. But even if he maintains himself on a sporting level at the end of the season, he will have to find financial solutions to save himself in the eyes of the DNCG.

The financial control body has just announced that after its hearing, it was taking various measures, including the control of Sporting's payroll, a ban on recruitment and above all a “demotion as a precautionary measure at the end of the current sporting season.» In other words, if the DNCG does not see any economic improvement, Bastia will play in National next season. At the 3rd level, moreover, Orléans also sees its payroll being regulated.
