Cardiff City Football Club has been informed of the adjournment of the hearing against FC Nantes, which was scheduled for September 22nd.
The request comes from FC Nantes, which claims it is not "ready" to plead the case, despite the hearing date having been set since April 2025.
Cardiff City FC can only express its regret at FC Nantes' stance. This stance is all the more surprising given the confidence shown by FC Nantes until now, which claimed that the case had already been decided in its favour and described Cardiff City FC’s argument as “absurd.”
Six years after the tragedy that claimed the life of Emiliano Sala, FC Nantes must be held accountable — both for the world of football and for the player’s loved ones.
Cardiff City FC reaffirms its trust in the French justice system and will be ready to present its case in court on December 8.
