The future of Bordeaux as a professional football club could take a decisive turn. As the commercial court is set to rule on the club’s continuation plan on Tuesday, former Bayern Munich legend Oliver Kahn has made a bid to take over the Girondins.
According to reports from several media outlets, including Sud Ouest, Kahn’s proposal includes an immediate repayment of 15 million euros in debt, contrasting with current owner Gérard Lopez’s plan to repay 24 million euros over 10 years.
A decisive choice for the commercial court
The court, which must decide between these two proposals, may consult certain creditors to make a final decision. If Kahn’s offer is deemed more attractive, the hearing could be postponed to allow further examination of the proposal. This potential shift marks a key moment in the history of the Bordeaux club, which has struggled to maintain financial stability after a challenging season in National 2.
An uncertain future for the Girondins
The fate of the Girondins de Bordeaux rests on this decision, and Oliver Kahn’s offer could mark the beginning of a new era for the club, under the leadership of a world-renowned investor. However, for now, the commercial court must still choose between the two competing offers.
