FC Tatran Prešov is facing internal conflict and financial scrutiny following allegations of mismanagement by former executives. Current leadership claims the previous administration caused significant damage, including the loss of league subsidies due to unpaid vehicle leases and suspicious transfer policies that left the club without registered players. The club also noted that previous contracts included bonuses for players specifically for being relegated.

Subsequent reports indicate the club is facing a crisis involving millions of euros in debt, including approximately 225,000 euros in unpaid managerial bonuses. While former board chairman Vlastislav Laskovský has defended the legitimacy of these payments, local officials have approved an in-depth audit of the club’s finances covering the period from 2022 to 2025.
