Olympique Lyonnais 2018-2019 Away Shirt - Fekir No.18 (M)

📐 Flat measurements

Lay flat a shirt that fits you well, measure it the same way and compare — vintage sizing often differs from modern fits.

No defects. The navy is deep and even, with no sheen or fading, and the chevron motif woven into the knit shows up perfectly in raking light. The coral side stripes are crisp, the FEKIR No.18 printing is flawless and perfectly bonded, the Hyundai sponsor shows no cracking. Crisp embroidered crest, intact Ligue 1 patch, button collar with no stretching, all labels present.

Unsure about the size? This adidas M is well cut (52 x 74 cm): compare the flat measurements above, or check my vintage football shirt size guide.

✦ Authenticity guaranteed for life

Every piece is checked by hand in my authentication workshop. If a shirt bought from me is ever identified as a unofficial, I refund it in full. No expiry date on that guarantee.

• Inner label photographed (photo 4): reference CF9153, this shirt's official reference, verifiable independently
• Ligue 1 Conforama patch on the sleeve: that commercial naming of the French league only existed for a short period, which dates the shirt to within a couple of seasons. It is a marker generic unofficial pieces do not have
• Raised embroidered OL crest (photo 3): the heraldic lion must stay sharp right into its mane and the gold thread must not spill onto the blue ground
• Chevron motif woven into the knit, not printed: it only appears in raking light and you can feel it with a finger. Unofficial pieces print that motif flat, or leave it out
• Button collar on a reinforced placket: an expensive finishing detail, often replaced by a plain collar on reproductions
• Real photos of the exact shirt for sale, never stock images — full method in my authentication guide

📖 Fekir's last dance at Lyon

After the summer of 2018 and a Liverpool transfer that collapsed at the last moment, Nabil Fekir stayed at Lyon for one more season. This shirt belongs to that final year — the one that was not supposed to happen.

📅 15 July 2018 — world champion. Fekir lifted the World Cup with France in Moscow. He started the 2018-2019 season with an extra star on the blue shirt.

⚽ 2018-2019 season — the European run. Lyon came through a Champions League group that included Manchester City, before going out in the last 16 to Barcelona. As captain, Fekir was its technical leader.

👋 Summer 2019 — the departure. Fekir joined Real Betis. So this shirt closes a chapter: that of an academy-raised Lyonnais who became captain and then world champion.

🎨 An understated, well-finished away kit — deep navy, a button collar in the style of the period, coral stripes on the flanks and a chevron motif woven into the knit. Discreet from a distance, rich in detail up close.
