Mbappe's team sacked a number of players.

Caen, the French club co-owned by Kylian Mbappe, is facing a major crisis after a disastrous season.

Mbappe's Caen is in crisis.

Caen were relegated to the French third division (National 1) after finishing last in Ligue 2 in the 2024/25 season. The team only managed 5 wins and had the worst defense in the league, conceding 58 goals.

According to RMC Sport , Caen is preparing to implement a series of cost-cutting measures to tighten spending starting from the 2025/26 season. This is an unavoidable step before the club undergoes a crucial review by the DNCG, the financial supervisory authority of French football. The team could lose its eligibility to play in professional leagues if it fails to stabilize its finances.

Caen is expected to reduce its operating budget from 15 million euros to around 8-10 million euros for the upcoming National 1 season. This marks the first time since 1984 that Caen has not competed in either of the top two leagues in French football. The club has played in Ligue 2 for six years, since being relegated from Ligue 1 in 2019.

Mbappe met with the Caen players in February.

Kylian Mbappe acquired an 80% stake in Caen through his investment company in July 2024. The decision to change coaches three times in one season, including Nicolas Seube, Bruno Baltazar, and Michel Der Zakarian, caused Caen to lose stability. None of these coaches were able to salvage the situation for Caen.

Caen fans expressed their disappointment with Mbappe. They displayed banners criticizing the star for the club's decline.

Meanwhile, Mbappe has yet to comment on the matter. He is currently training with the French national team in preparation for the upcoming Nations League semi-final against Spain on the morning of June 6th.

Mbappe's brace on the final day of La Liga: On the night of May 24th, Mbappe scored a brace in Real Madrid's 2-0 victory over Sociedad in the 38th round of La Liga at the Bernabeu.
