Will Paris FC, 3rd in Ligue 2, resume its championship on Saturday in Dunkirk on the occasion of the 20th day? Three days before the match, serious threats weigh on its progress. This Wednesday, the Dunkirk club communicated on the health situation within its professional group. He indicates that 11 positive cases for Covid 19 have been detected and that “all the people concerned have been placed in solitary confinement”.
Paris FC spared by the Covid since the takeover
The leaders of the USLD have officially requested the postponement of the match to the LFP which modified its health protocol on Tuesday. Clubs must now test their players 48 hours before matches, including those who have been vaccinated who, until now, were not. The rule according to which a match can be played if at least 20 players (including a goalkeeper) – on the list of 30 provided at the beginning of the season – are able, remains in force. But the identity of the players or positive staff members has not been revealed by Dunkirk, it is difficult to know if a possible postponement can enter into this context.
On the side of Paris FC, we therefore remain awaiting the decision of the LFP. According to our information, while awaiting new tests on Thursday, the Parisian club seems relatively spared since its resumption of training on December 28 and its friendly match against the Red Star (2-2) on December 31. Only one player (not a regular holder) was indeed declared positive last week after the four cases in December.
