About Caen

Stade Malherbe Caen, commonly known as SM Caen, is a professional football club based in Caen, Normandy, France. Founded in 1913, the club has a rich history and has made significant contributions to French football. Named after François de Malherbe, a 17th-century poet from Caen, the club reflects the city's cultural heritage in its identity.

SM Caen plays its home matches at the Stade Michel d'Ornano, a stadium with a seating capacity of over 20,000 spectators. The club's colors are red and blue, which are prominently displayed in their crest and kit.

The club has spent most of its history in the second tier of French football, Ligue 2, but has had several spells in the top flight, Ligue 1. Their first stint in the top division came in the 1987-88 season, and they have since enjoyed several periods in Ligue 1, the longest of which lasted from 2010 to 2019. Despite their frequent presence in the lower leagues, SM Caen has consistently proven to be a formidable opponent, often challenging higher-ranked teams.

SM Caen's most successful period came in the early 1990s when they reached the final of the Coupe de France in 1992 and qualified for the UEFA Cup (now the UEFA Europa League) in 1993. Despite losing the Coupe de France final to AS Monaco, their run to the final is still remembered as one of the highlights of the club's history.

The club has also been successful in developing young talents through its youth academy. Several players who have gone on to have successful careers at the highest level, both in France and abroad, started their careers at SM Caen. These include players like William Gallas, a former French international who has played for clubs like Chelsea and Arsenal, and Yann Karamoh, who has represented France at various youth levels and currently plays for Parma in Italy.

SM Caen's fan base, known as the "Malherbists," is passionate and loyal. Despite the club's ups and downs, they have consistently supported the team, creating a vibrant atmosphere at the Stade Michel d'Ornano.

In recent years, SM Caen has faced challenges on and off the pitch. After a decade in Ligue 1, they were relegated to Ligue 2 at the end of the 2018-19 season. Despite these setbacks, the club remains committed to its philosophy of developing young talent and playing attractive football. The club's vision is not just about achieving success on the pitch, but also about contributing to the local community and representing the city of Caen with pride.

In conclusion, SM Caen is a club with a rich history and a strong identity. Despite the challenges they have faced, they remain a significant part of French football and continue to contribute to the sport both on and off the pitch. Their commitment to youth development, their passionate fan base, and their resilience in the face of adversity are all testament to the club's character and values.
