Le Graët foresees difficulties if Mediapro does not keep its commitments

Noël Le Graët is not serene -

Noël Le Graët is like all of us.

He was only very moderately reassured Wednesday by the press conference of Jaume Roures, the boss of Mediapro, endangered holder of French TV rights.

Asked by

, the boss of the French Football Federation struggles to hide his concern and would almost rely on the good faith of the broadcaster.

“There is no indication that the resumption of payments will be rapid.

I imagine this company is working with its shareholders to find a stronger financial case.

But that would create enormous difficulties for the French clubs and even the federation if Mediapro did not keep its commitments.

Moody's further downgrades Mediapro's rating

If the situation does not give rise to optimism and gives rise to fears of a new bank loan for French football following the probable non-payment of the Sino-Spanish group (whose rating has just been downgraded by Moody's), Le Graët expects that he moves to find a solution to his problems.

“We can hope that Mediapro also finds some formulas.

Otherwise, it will be very worrying.

I hope they work to be more successful financially.
