PARIS, April 30 (Reuters) - Paris St Germain have been banned from the League Cup next season after some of their fans unfolded a racist banner during this season's League Cup final, the French League (LFP) said on Wednesday.

Strugglers PSG could have been handed a point deduction in Ligue 1. Instead, they stay on 38 points with three matches left, the same as Racing Lens, who occupy the last safe spot.
