FC Nantes 1988 - 89 Retro Fußball Jacke

While a sixth-placed finish typically represented a decent Ligue 1 campaign, by the high standards Nantes had set in recent years, the 1988-89 season proved a disappointment as it left them outside the European places for the following season.

On paper, this was an outstanding team in waiting: Coach Miroslav Blazevic was regularly fielding future stars like Marcel Desailly, Didier Deschamps, and Christian Karambeu alongside experienced foreign imports like Frankie Vercauteren and World Cup winner Jorge Burruchaga. No single player hit double figures for goals in Ligue 1, although Thierno Youm and Mo Johnston came close enough with nine apiece.
