Marseille Soccer Club Launches African-Inspired Jerseys for Morocco, Ivory Coast, and Senegal

"Proud of its very strong ties with Africa, Olympique de Marseille wanted to pay tribute to the continent through its "OM Africa" label," the French club said on its website.

The objective of this program launched last year is to bring together all the supporters of the French club around events on the African continent. The program also includes a training component developed by "OM School", and a social component carried by the OM Foundation, the club said.

The jerseys made in the colors of Morocco (red), Côte d’Ivoire (green and orange) and Senegal (green and yellow) have been available since January 30 in the official stores of Olympique de Marseille and with some retailers.
