Lyon History

The precursor to Olympique Lyonnais was a club called Racing Club de Lyon (today best known as rugby club Lyon OU) in 1896. The soccer arm of this club started in 1899.

Disagreements within the club regarding professional players led to a splinter club forming in 1950 – this club is the Lyon we know today.

They would win the second division in just their second year, earning a spot in the top tier. A trio of Coupe de France titles were sprinkled in the 1960s and 1970s, marking the peak of Lyon success for the 20th century.

It wasn’t until the 2000s that Lyon really came into form. Starting in 2001-02, they would win all seven of their Ligue 1 titles in a row, which remains a French record for consecutive titles. They’ve also captured two Coupe de France wins in this modern era.

Lyon seemed well on their way to becoming the dominant side in French football, but the Qatari takeover of Paris Saint-Germain upended the balance of power in 2011. PSG has since won the vast majority of French silverware up for grabs since 2012.

Despite now living in the shadow of the Parisian giants, Lyon has advanced to the semifinals of Champions League and Europa League in recent years, which is as far as their high-spending rivals have made it.
