Overview
- OM, which presented the 12th crest in its history on Wednesday, introduced a simpler circular badge with a stylized M in a darker Marseille blue that is set to appear on player kits next season.
- Interim president Alban Juster said Thursday the update is the result of a 24‑month project.
- Juster explained that the star and the “Droit au But” motto will remain on match and training gear even though they were removed from the primary logo to improve readability.
- The club says the redesign supports a strategy to strengthen OM’s global identity as domestic broadcast revenue falls.
- Early reaction from supporters was mixed, with social media jokes and a petition reflecting concern about changes to long-held symbols.
