Brest sounds the alarm regarding the future of its club due to changes in TV rights. Gérard Le Saint, the co-president of Brest, expressed concern over a significant drop in revenue, predicting that the club will only receive 8 million euros this season, down from 20 or 25 million previously. This decline could reduce the annual budget from 50 to 35 million euros, forcing the club to consider player sales this summer. Le Saint emphasizes that the situation is worrying, especially with competition from other European leagues. He calls for a better marketing strategy to attract more subscribers to Ligue 1+. With 2 million followers on social media, Brest could generate more revenue by encouraging its supporters to subscribe. The construction of a new stadium, scheduled for 2029 or 2030, adds to the uncertainty. The club must navigate a challenging landscape but remains determined to overcome these challenges.
