Olympique Lyonnais 2001-02

The Legacy

Juninho Pernambucano joined Olympique Lyonnais in 2001, providing the creative spark required to elevate the team. Sonny Anderson remained the focal point of the attack, ensuring they remained competitive at the top of the league. Grégory Coupet anchored the defense throughout the campaign, while Sidney Govou emerged as a key attacking threat under the Pathé sponsorship. This Adidas third shirt served as the backdrop for the club's final steps toward domestic dominance. The team finished as French champions that year, marking the beginning of a historic run of titles in the top division.
