The FFF, represented by its director of institutional and international relations Erwan Le Prévost, and the PSG, with the general director Victoriano Melero, were received by the Minister of Sports, Gil Avérous, the Secretary of State in charge of citizenship and the fight against discrimination Othman Nasrou, as well as by the Paris police prefect Laurent Nunez.
“A frank and constructive dialogue made it possible to identify solutions that PSG is committed to putting in place from the next match organized at the Parc des Princes,” the minister's entourage told AFP.
The Ultra Paris Collective sanctioned by the club
Another participant in this meeting explained to AFP that access to the Parc des Princes outside match days was going to be prohibited to the CUP for an undefined period and that the club had undertaken to put in place a procedure a priori control of tifos, in particular “to guarantee the absence of messages of a political nature”.
PSG has thus promised to “strengthen the process of controlling banners and ban those which have not been validated”, according to another source close to a participant from the Parisian club.
The CUP “did not respect the regulations”, according to the same source, and PSG should announce “a number of other sanctions” in the near future.
“If the club's response is insufficient, it will be open to interpretation […]. If there are no sanctions, the Ministry of the Interior will not be satisfied with them,” Othman Nasrou further assured, according to a participant, stressing that Beauvau would be “attentive to the proper application of sanctions” .
