French giants Lyon kicked out of Ligue 1 over financial issues

(AP Photo/Laurent Cipriani, File) Seven-time Ligue 1 champions Lyon have been relegated to the second-tier by French football's financial watchdog, the French professional league (LFP) announced on Tuesday. During a hearing earlier in the day, Lyon were unable to convince the regulator (DNCG) to lift the restrictions it had put on the club in November. Lyon can appeal the decision. Before the meeting, Lyon's president John Textor said he was confident of avoiding the drop to Ligue 2 for next season, where the club has not played since 1989. 'We have made a variety of investments in recent weeks,' he said. 'Everything is good financially.' American Textor sold his 43 percent stake in Premier League outfit Crystal Palace earlier in the week. Lyon have reduced their salary bill and sold Rayan Cherki to Manchester City and Maxence Caqueret to Como. Lyon qualified for next season's Europa League after finishing sixth in the French top-flight. If their relegation is confirmed, they would be replaced in Ligue 1 by Reims. Lyon won seven consecutive French titles between 2002 and 2008. Only five clubs have won Ligue 1 more often. Paris Saint-Germain hold the record with 13 titles.

Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos arrives at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party on Sunday, March 2, 2025, at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, Calif. (Evan Agostini/Invision/AP) VENICE, Italy — Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and journalist Lauren Sanchez have invited scores of VIPs from film, finance and show business to Venice this week for three days of wedding celebrations. Here are some facts and figures about what has been dubbed the 'Wedding of the Century,' much of which has been kept secret, including details about the guest list and the exact cost of festivities. $55 million occasion The wedding and its parts are expected to cost 40 to 48 million euros (US$46.5 to $55.6 million), Luca Zaia, president of the Veneto regional government that comprises Venice, told reporters on Tuesday. Bezos will make sizeable charity donations, including 1 million euros for Corila, an academic consortium that studies Venice's lagoon ecosystem, Italy's Corriere della Sera newspaper and the ANSA news agency reported on Sunday.
