Debt with Girondins: Sporting Gijon seeks payment

Sporting Gijon is trying to collect the 1.5 million euro debt from Girondins de Bordeaux, which only offers to pay 10% in 10 years.

What happened?

Girondins is using the concursal process in France to guarantee its viability and is asking other clubs for the same conditions as Sporting to put an end to the disputes.

Sporting Gijon also used the Spanish Concursal Law in 2005, but in their case, the debt reduction was almost 30 million of the 50 generated during the management of Alfredo García Amado and the ownership of José Fernández.

Why is it important for Sporting Gijon?

The dispute centers on the Pedro Díaz case, and Sporting Gijon did not attend to the contractual obligation to formally communicate to Espanyol any offer received for the player.

What comes next?

Sporting Gijon is currently in 9th position in the Segunda División, with 61 points and a balance of 18 wins, 7 draws, and 17 losses in 42 games. The Asturian team has 5 consecutive wins and is looking to continue adding points to consolidate its position in the table.
