Bordeaux has been sold to investment fund Park Bench, according to L Équipe. This significant development in French football follows a recent deal between Waldemar Kita and FC Nantes. The transfer also includes a renegotiation of the club's debt, with the repayment plan now extending over twelve years, up from the initially planned ten years.
Moreover, the claims against the club will be reduced from €26 million to €13 million. In this agreement, Gérard Lopez is set to sell his shares for just one euro, a move likely to avert court-ordered liquidation for Bordeaux. The next crucial step for the club is to present its 2026-2027 season budget at the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Football League's regional club control commission.
