It has emerged that Ligue 1 outfit SC Bastia are being forced to pay €10,000 for every single match that their recently appointed manager Ghislain Printant is on the touchline, because he does not possess the relevant coaching qualifications.
To try and combat the fact that Printant does not possess the BEPF diploma qualifications, François Ciccolini was appointed as a joint manager in an attempt to sidestep these fines.
Unfortunately for Bastia, this attempt has failed as they are still being fined €10,000 per game.
