After the TV channels who refuse to pay the Professional Football League, it is the sponsors who could not pay money to Ligue 1 clubs. Accor CEO Sébastien Bazin said on Friday on BFM TV: "Sponsors cannot donate money if there is no visibility." However, Accor has become PSG's main jersey partner this season under a contract estimated at more than 55 million euros per year.
"We, [the payment] is paid in two installments: on January 1 and July 1," said Sébastien Bazin. On January 1, it was paid. For July 1, [the championship] would have to start again, otherwise it probably won't be paid. ”
Such a scenario could pose difficulties for PSG, whose contract with Accor was a breath of fresh air in the face of the threat of financial fair play (FPF), which prohibits a club engaged in European competition from spending more than what it does not earn and closely supervises capital injections. UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin, however, spoke of possible changes to the FPF rules due to this "terrible year" for the clubs.
