Eager to save money, clubs have a lot to sell their women's teams. Jean-Michel Aulas, who is at the head of the women's league, has already found investors.
This is one of the direct effects of the TV rights crisis in France. Like OL, which has already relieved its “non -essential active ingredients” by transferring its women's section to Michele Kang in the summer of 2023, many Ligue 1 clubs would today try to give up their D1 Arkema team to save according to RMC Sports. A movement that is gaining momentum with a tier team now on sale.
This would notably be the case of Le Havre, Dijon and Reims while Montpellier – French pioneer in female football under the thumb of Louis Nicollin – in turn and other clubs are also advancing on the same reflection.

8 investors ready to recover female sections?
At the head of the LFFP (women's league), Jean-Michel Aulas is currently working to avoid a maximum suppression of female sections. Still according to RMC, the former OL boss would have found six American and English investors, ready to recover these sections on sale: “These are investment funds that have been created specially for women's football. Mainly, they are American or English investors. In general, they have experience in NWSL through shareholding. They believe in the growth of women's football. Before the end of the 2024-2025 financial year, I think we will be able to announce several operations that will bring solid investors for French women's football, “said JMA while two French investors have also come forward.
