Paris: The progress in the Champions League final of Paris Saint German should be a reason for celebrating French football, but their success rarely hides the fact that the game is in crisis in the country as the league 1 season ended this weekend.

Long before the end of the French campaign, PSG had already won a fourth domestic honor, and the Louis Enrique team could also add the French Cup next week. Then after the Champions League show down on Inter -Milan on May 31, PSG aims to finally raise the trophy that they are most luring.

France has won the World Cup twice and has reached two more in the last seven editions. But French clubs have made the habit of undergoing in continental competitions, namely, after the PSG in 1993, the most European football prize winning prize can become the only second club in the country.

Tell me another way, France has still won the same European Cup Scotland and Romania, or less than the Nottingham Forest. After that, it is not surprising that the French football community appears to be united in the PSG in the final, yet despite the rival parties impossible to challenge the rival -backed club.

“We are fortunate to get a French team in the final,” said Nice coach Frank Hess. “I am not a Parisian supporter. My club is good, but I’m desperate to see Paris winning the final. I am French, as I won in 1993. “

Marsley, Monaco and Levin have reached at least all European semi -finals in recent years and should want to compete regularly at this level. Still, the state of Lyon, seven times the French champions, is disturbing.

Eagle Football, the company under US trader John Texture and owns Lyon, recently reported a loan of 540 million euros ($ 603 million). This has raised doubts about Levin’s ability to worry, followed by failure to qualify for the Champions League next season.

Levin was again warned that if strict action was not taken to reduce their debt, they would be removed with league 2. Sports Daily Lakepy has also reported that the UEFA will have to accept sanctions to allow the club to go to Europe next season.

At least Marseille and Monaco know they will be in the Champions League with PSG. A French club is unable to participate in wealth at a presentation in Europe, with the uncertainty around the League 1 domestic TV deal faces a difficult future.

With a last -minute contract for this season, the streaming platform Dzon promised League 1 clubs only 400 million euros a year to show most matches in the weekend.

Including international broadcasters, including other deals, is much lower than the French League (LFP) TV annually a billion euros ($ 1.115 billion). As a result, Lego 1’s current TV deal is lower on its previous deal, leaving France behind Europe’s largest leagues – the Premier League’s upcoming domestic rights deal in the next four years is worth 2.02 billion euros.

In addition, the contract with Disun is now expected to be broken soon, instead of trying to create its own channel to broadcast the French league matches.

And in such a short to medium -term clubs, there is no guarantee of how much income they will get from television. This can only make life difficult, and a huge gap between PSG and the rest can only increase.

Marseille coach Roberto de Zarbi insisted, “PSG has made a lot of money and is many years ahead of us in many cases, but our desire is unable to compete with them.” However, the Parisian residents are going to the United States Club World Cup, where the prize money at the offer will be seen receiving the winners up to 125 million. Perhaps all PSG rivals can expect that the Louis Enrique team is so tired of the tournament that the playground opens a bit next season.
