During the 2025-2026 season, Paris Saint-Germain was penalized with three forfeits following a complaint filed by Fleury regarding the registration of Florianne Jourde (a 21-year-old midfielder) who did not have an International Transfer Certificate (ITC) issued by FIFA. PSG defends itself by emphasizing that it resolved the situation as quickly as possible, even though the French Football Federation had already approved the transfer. The Parisian club has also appealed, without success so far, according to Le Parisien.
“PSG will use all available legal avenues.”
The Parisian women’s team remains penalized in the standings. The three forfeits awarded to the Paris Saint-Germain women’s team in the Premier League due to a registration issue with their Canadian player Florianne Jourde have been upheld on appeal, a source close to the club confirmed on Wednesday.
PSG, which at the time denounced the decision as “completely disproportionate,” will use all available legal avenues, including the French National Olympic and Sports Committee (CNOSF) and then the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), according to the same source.
This is bad news for the Parisian club, which is clearly penalized in the league as it tries to fight for a playoff spot. PSG understandably does not intend to give up and is expected to pursue all possible legal actions with the various governing bodies. There is hope of winning the case, but it is far from certain. For the moment, the women’s team and staff must work with these lost points.
