L’histoire illustrée de l’Olympique de Marseille

One club, one legend Hardcover
Since 1899, the date of its creation, until the last European final against Atlético Madrid, dive with texts, illustrations, comics and exclusive interviews (Papin, Deschamps, Boli, Di Meco, Magnusson…) into the depths of this dashing centenarian. Discover the little-known and sometimes incredible slices of life of OM’s greatest players, from Skoblar to Ben Barek via Drogba, Waddle, Andersson and many others. Put on the costume of its emblematic leaders, Dufaure de Montmirail, Dard, Leclerc, Tapie, Diouf, praised to the skies then exposed to all storms.

Follow in the footsteps and tragic destinies of its coaches, the first to be sacrificed on the altar of poor results. Find all the players, all the jerseys, season after season. And of course the most unforgettable epics including that of 1993, the only victory to date for a French club in the Champions League. “forever the first”, yes, but so much more.
Do you know that two presidents of foreign countries have worn the white and blue jersey? That a star from the 1940s was registered with OM before even being declared in the civil registry? That football already attracted more than 10,000 people to Marseille in the 1920s? That the Coupe de France spent a night behind bars?
