Nantes have been relegated to the second tier of French football after losing their final match of the season against Marseille on Sunday.
The defeat means that they will be playing in Ligue 2 next year, while Ajaccio have also been relegated following their loss at home to Nice on Saturday.
Clermont have secured their survival by defeating Dijon 2-1 in their final game of the season, which has ensured that they will avoid the drop into the third tier of French football.
This is not the first time that Nantes and Ajaccio have been relegated from Ligue 1 - both sides were relegated in 2017, and this was their third consecutive season in the bottom three.
Despite their struggles in recent seasons, these two clubs have shown some resilience and determination throughout the campaign.
However, it's clear that there is still work to be done if they want to avoid relegation again next season.
For example, Nantes will need to improve their defensive record and score more goals if they want to avoid falling further down the table.
Similarly, Ajaccio will need to find ways to create more chances and score more goals if they want to stay up.
Overall, it's a tough situation for these two teams, but they can take comfort in the fact that they have already avoided the worst-case scenario of being relegated to Ligue 2. They just need to continue to perform well and hope that they can bounce back in the coming seasons.
