The 2010/11 season was one of the most exciting for Olympique de Marseille in the modern era. The team led by Didier Deschamps—during his time as club manager before taking the reins of the French national team—had won Ligue 1 the previous season after 18 years without a league title, and approached the new campaign with the ambition of establishing itself in the European elite. In the Champions League, OM advanced from the group stage with authority, sharing a group with Chelsea and Spartak Moscow, before falling in the round of 16 to Manchester United. Players like Lorik Cana and Samir Nasri—already at Arsenal—had left their mark, and the squad featured Brandão, Lucho González, and a rising Loïc Rémy. A top-tier season for a club that felt like a powerhouse once again.
The item is the 2010/11 away shirt, manufactured by Adidas. Designed in black with navy blue and gold details, the three Adidas stripes on the sleeves and the OM crest embroidered on the chest. Size M, featuring the slim fit of the Adidas match kits from that period. Without a number or name set, in its cleanest version. Exceptional condition, 9.5 out of 10, with virtually no visible wear. A collector's item from a season in which Marseille returned to competing in Europe with full confidence.
