On June 17, 2026, Marseille was fined 10 million euros for failing to meet UEFA's break-even targets but avoided expulsion from European competition. The fine consists of 6 million euros for financial target breaches and 4 million euros related to squad cost rules. This ruling comes after Marseille had already entered a settlement agreement in 2022 aimed at reducing their financial deficit. UEFA cited an unexpected downturn in domestic broadcasting revenues as a mitigating factor in its decision. However, if Marseille does not meet their financial obligations next season, they could face a ban from European play.
