Nhoa Sangui completes Paris FC move

Yahoo5 days ago

Nhoa Sangui (19) has completed a move from relegated Stade de Reims to recently promoted Paris FC.
The Reims youth product made 32 appearances in all competitions last season. However, with Les Stadistes making the drop down to Ligue 2, they will be obliged to sell off many of their assets, including their academy product, Sangui. Whilst the fee for the France youth international has not been disclosed, L'Équipe understands that the deal will rise up to €5m, including bonuses.

Sangui has signed a five-year deal with the club, whose summer spending is expected to continue. FC Nantes' Moses Simon is also on the verge of completing a move to the newly promoted side. There will be further arrivals, too, with L'Équipe reporting that Paris FC could spend as much as €40m during the current transfer window, in order to secure their top-flight status next season and build the foundations for more long-term success.

Report – France Star Not Ready To Start For Inter Milan Vs Fluminense In Club World Cup Showdown

Report – France Star Not Ready To Start For Inter Milan Vs Fluminense In Club World Cup Showdown Striker Marcus Thuram is reportedly not ready to start for Inter Milan in today's Club World Cup round of sixteen match against Fluminense. This according to today's print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews.

There are some fitness issues heading into today's match. For example, striker Francesco Pio Esposito has reportedly pulled out of training for Inter in the last couple days. The 20-year-old had reportedly been the favourite to start after his start turn against River Plate. Meanwhile, Davide Frattesi has returned to Italy for injury tests. The 25-year-old will play no part at the Club World Cup this summer.

He came off the bench against Monterrey but missed group stage matches against Urawa Red Diamonds and River Plate. That is certainly a boost for Inter coach Cristian Chivu.

Having just come back after a couple weeks out, he'll need to ease back into the lineup.

Michelle Kang takes over as president of Ligue 1 team Lyon as John Textor resigns

American businesswoman Michele Kang has taken over as president of seven-time French champion Lyon after John Textor resigned following the club's relegation over financial irregularities. The South Korea-born Kang is also majority owner of the Lyon's women's team — OL Lyonnes — and has been on Lyon's board of directors since 2023. Lyon said in a statement that Kang will play an 'active role' in leading the club's appeal against the relegation handed down last Tuesday by the French league's soccer watchdog, known as DNCG. The case is expected to be heard within the next week. That ruling could also decide whether Crystal Palace will be allowed to play in next season's Europa League, which Lyon also qualified for. Textor also held a 43% stake in Palace — which he has agreed to sell to New York Jets owner Woody Johnson — and UEFA has rules against clubs with the same owner playing the same competition. Lyon added that Textor has also resigned from the board of directors. He became Lyon president three years ago, taking over from longstanding incumbent Jean-Michel Aulas, who sold to Textor's Eagle Football Holdings. The 66-year-old Kang will be supported in her role by Michael Gerlinger, the general manager of Eagle Football Holdings. 'A highly respected figure in European football administration, Michael brings over two decades of experience in governance, regulatory affairs and sports operations,' Lyon said in its statement. Why did Lyon get relegated? Lyon's run of Ligue 1 titles from 2001-08 made it the powerhouse of French soccer. Since Paris Saint-Germain took over at the top, fortunes have steadily dipped for Lyon. The decision to relegate the club followed an audit of its finances by the DNCG, with Lyon's current debt estimated at 175 million euros ($203 million). The DNCG had already provisionally relegated Lyon to Ligue 2 in November, with the club reporting at the time that it had more than 500 million euros ($581 million) of debt. A transfer ban was also imposed in the January transfer window. News of Lyon's relegations was met by dismay from Lyon fans, with one historic supporters group — The Bad Gones — leading calls for Textor's immediate resignation. The club shop was tagged with a blunt message urging him to go. A Champions League finalist five years ago, Lyon narrowly lost to Manchester United in the Europa League quarterfinals this season and missed out on a cash windfall when it failed to qualify for next season's Champions League after finishing sixth in Ligue 1. Three weeks ago, Lyon received a much-needed cash injection by selling coveted playmaker Rayan Cherki to Manchester City for 36 million euros, while high earners like forward Alexandre Lacazette left the club. But it wasn't enough to convince the DNCG that Lyon's books were in order, a task which now falls to Kang. Ligue 1 resumes in mid-August with Lyon scheduled to play at Lens if it wins the appeal. More about Michelle Kang Forbes estimates Kang's worth at $1.2 billion. Kang assumed majority ownership of Lyon one year after taking over the Washington Spirit women's team in 2022 when average gates were around 3,000. They are now around 15,000. She also heads Kynisca Sports International, a women-led, multi-team global sports organization. Last November, she pledged $30 million to U.S. Soccer over five years for women and girls — the largest single investment specifically for women's and girl's programs in the federation's history. As well as her donation to U.S. Soccer, in August 2024 her Kynisca Sports organization set up a $50-million (£39.2 million) global investment fund to help improve the health and performance of elite female athletes. Lyon's women's team — a record eight-time Champions League winner — will enjoy a new, female-specific training campus when it opens in July 2026. The women's team will also share the Groupama Stadium with the men's side. Last season's women's Champions League semfinal against rival PSG attracted 38,466 spectators. ___ AP soccer:
