Saïd Chabane, owner of Angers-SCO, risks a suspended prison sentence of one and a half years for money laundering. The current owner of the Angevin club is indeed being prosecuted for complicity and not for illegal exercise of the profession of agent as was erroneously indicated by the court.
Since Monday, three men active in the world of football and Lasana K., a sports agent officially licensed by the French Football Federation, have appeared in the dock since Monday. Two years in prison, one of which was suspended, and a ban on working as an agent and managing a business for three years were required against this 41-year-old man.
