Paris St-Germain will be forced to close part of the Parc des Princes for next month's Ligue 1 match against Toulouse as punishment for homophobic chanting by their fans.
The incident occurred during PSG's 4-2 home win over Strasbourg on 19 October when supporters chanted about Marseille midfielder Adrien Rabiot.
France international Rabiot played for PSG between 2012 and 2019 but joined rivals Marseille on a free transfer in September after being released by Juventus.
PSG played Marseille eight days after the Strasbourg match, winning 3-0 at the Stade Velodrome.
The Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) said in a statement that PSG have to close the Auteuil stand - the end behind the goal traditionally occupied by a number of the club's ultras.
However, the sanction does not start until 5 November which means PSG's Ligue 1 match against Lens this weekend will take place without any restrictions.
Instead, PSG will be forced to close part of their ground for the visit of Toulouse on 22 November.
Four PSG players were given one-match suspensions over their role in offensive chants after a win over Marseille last season.
