The club has been officially relegated due to financial troubles.
Details: The DNCG has just released its official decision regarding Lyon—and it's a bitter pill to swallow.
The DNCG, the body responsible for financial oversight in French football, has decided to demote the club to Ligue 2 due to significant debts and the failure to meet financial obligations.
Previously, the club had already faced sanctions, including a transfer ban, but the situation has only worsened since then.
It is reported that the club still has the opportunity to appeal, giving Lyon fans a glimmer of hope to see their team remain in France's top flight.
Reminder: Lyon received a transfer ban from FIFA. What's the story?
