The French Football Federation (LFP) has announced that the club of Marseille, where Payet is currently playing for the first team, will be fined €1 million by the governing body for their decision to sell the striker in June.

This move comes after Payet scored 19 goals in 26 appearances for Marseille this season, including two hat-tricks against Bordeaux and Lyon, as well as scoring twice in the Champions League final victory over Real Madrid last year.

However, the LFP argues that the club should have sold Payet for more than €5 million, which would have helped the club reach its financial targets and secure a place in the Champions League next season.

In response,Qatar Stars League Tracking Payet said he was disappointed with the decision made by the LFP and vowed to continue his career in France. "I'm really disappointed with the decision they've taken," he said. "It's not fair, it's not right. It doesn't reflect what I put into the game, what the fans expect me to do."

Despite the setback, Payet remains confident that he can still play for Marseille and contribute to the club's success in the coming years. "I'm still very much committed to my club," he said. "But I know there's so much talent out there, and I'll keep working hard to help them achieve their goals."
