Olympique de Marseille infrastructure and leadership changes

Overview

Olympique de Marseille is addressing deficiencies in its training infrastructure. Following reports that the club’s aging La Commanderie facility, in use since 1991, was no longer sufficient for professional and youth requirements, the club announced a major €70 million project to construct a new, modern training center. President Stéphane Richard identified a site for the new facility, describing it as a “critical project” for the club’s sporting and economic ambitions.

Alongside these infrastructure plans, the club has implemented a significant organizational restructuring. A new leadership structure has been established to clarify responsibilities, dividing operations into three primary divisions: business and corporate, the sporting sector (including the first team and training center), and the women’s section.
