Olympic Club Safi (Arabic: نادي أولمبيك آسفي) is a Moroccan professional football club based in Safi. The club has currently been playing in Botola Pro since the 2004–05 season.

History

[edit]

Olympic Club de Safi, founded in 1921, is one of Morocco's oldest football clubs. Based in the coastal city of Safi, the team has spent much of its history in the lower divisions before rising to prominence in the early 2000s. The club earned promotion to the Botola Pro (Moroccan top division) in the 2003–04 season and has remained a steady presence since. Their home ground is Stade El Massira, which holds around 15,000 fans. Backed by the OCP Group since 1986, OCS reached notable success with a Throne Cup final appearance in 2016 and regular top-half finishes in recent Botola seasons.[1] The club is also known for its passionate supporters and investment in youth development through a dedicated football academy.

On 22 June 2025, Olympic Club de Safi made history by qualifying for the CAF Confederation Cup for the first time, set to begin in the 2025–26 season, after reaching the final of the 2024–25 Moroccan Throne Cup by defeating Union de Touarga in the semi-final.[2] Their qualification was secured after RS Berkane defeated Maghreb Tetouan in the other semi-final,[3][4] as Berkane had already qualified for the CAF Champions League, thereby granting the Confederation Cup berth to Olympic Safi. On 29 June 2025, Olympic Club de Safi crowned their campaign by winning the final, claiming the Moroccan Throne Cup for the first time in their history.[5][6]
