This stain has caused permanent damage to the floor. The stain cannot be removed by cleaning.
Please note: the alternative solution below may work very well, but may also locally affect the embossing (structure) of your floor, which cannot be repaired. Scratches caused by the use of sandpaper can often be camouflaged.
If necessary, without damaging the rest of the floor, try carefully sanding away the discolouration with sandpaper so that the spot is less or no longer visible. If the discolouration is too deep, it is better not to sand any further.
There will be scratches from the sandpaper. Did you succeed in removing the discolouration? The scratches in the floor can then be camouflaged by applying James Extra Matt or James Semi Gloss.
