Olympique Lyonnais 2012-2013 Third Shirt - Lisandro No.9 (M)

📐 Flat measurements

Lay flat a shirt that fits you well, measure it the same way and compare — vintage often sizes differently from new, and this is the most reliable way to avoid a mistake.

The black is still deep, with no fading — the critical point on a dark shirt over ten years old, and it passes. No holes, no stains, seams and UEFA patches intact, LISANDRO No.9 nameset flawless. The one point to disclose, shown close up across three photos (6, 7 and 8): the Veolia Environnement sponsor shows light wear, in the form of micro cracking in the heat-pressed print. It is visible up close, not from two metres away, and it has no effect on the fabric.

📖 2012-2013: Lisandro's final chapter at Gerland

This black third, with its blue and red graphic flash across the chest, is one of the most recognisable shirts of the adidas era in Lyon. It accompanies OL's European campaign and the final months of their Argentine striker.

📅 2009 — the record signing. Lisandro López arrived from FC Porto and became one of the biggest investments in Olympique Lyonnais history. He wore No.9 until 2013.

📅 Season 2012-2013 — the Europa League. Rémi Garde's OL played in the Europa League: these are the UEFA patches worn on this shirt's sleeves. A European configuration, produced in far smaller volumes than the league version.

📅 May 2013 — a Ligue 1 podium. Lyon finished the season on the league podium and returned to the Champions League through the qualifying round. It was Lisandro's last season in a Lyon shirt.

👑 Lisandro López — an Argentine striker developed at Racing Club and made famous at FC Porto, he left his mark on modern OL history with his power and eye for goal. His “LISANDRO” nameset, using his first name rather than his surname, is an era marker Lyon supporters recognise instantly.
