Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain have been given a fine of €100,000 by the Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) over issues with the club's recruitment policy, as reported by
Goal.
Les Parisiens were investigated after the club's confirmation last November that the club's academy recruiting department were using "forms with illegal content"
A report by French independent only investigative and opinion journal
Mediapart and television programme '
Envoye Special', following the recent release of Football Leaks documents, have claimed that scouts were requested to report the ethnicity of potential academy signings.
General manager Jean-Claude Blanc and former sporting director Olivier Letang were amongst those to give evidence to the LFP's disciplinary committee.
While Paris Saint-Germain have been ordered to pay a €100,000 fine, several other members of the club's staff were also brought up.
Bertrand Reuzeau, who was PSG's training centre director circa 2013-2015, is fined €10,000.
Recruiting agents Marc Westerloppe and Pierre Reynaud were also fined €5,000 each.
