About

Olympique de Marseille (OM) is a prominent football club in France's Ligue 1. The club is currently newsworthy due to significant changes in its leadership and branding. Stéphane Richard, former CEO of Orange, has been appointed as the new president, succeeding Pablo Longoria. This appointment was officially announced in April 2026, with Richard expected to take office in July. The club has also unveiled a new logo, its 12th in history, designed to modernize the brand and appeal to digital audiences. On the field, OM recently secured a victory against Metz, temporarily climbing to a podium position in Ligue 1. However, they are described as fragile in the league standings, facing challenges from teams like AS Monaco. Former OM player Samir Nasri is also in the news due to tax issues.
