About Ligue 1
History
French professional football's top division was born in 1932, with Olympique Lillois claiming the very first title. The competition changed its name in 2002, when the National Football League became the Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) and renamed the top flight "Ligue 1." The number of clubs has varied over time: reduced from 20 to 18 in 1997, raised back to 20 in 2002, then brought back down to 18 from the 2023-24 season onward to strengthen French clubs' European competitiveness. Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology was introduced in Ligue 1 during the 2018-19 season.
Trophy roll
- Paris Saint-Germain — 14 titles, including five in a row between 2021-22 and 2025-26.
- AS Saint-Étienne — 10 titles, between 1957 and 1981.
- Olympique de Marseille — 9 titles.
- AS Monaco — 8 titles.
- FC Nantes — 8 titles.

- Olympique Lyonnais — Held the record for consecutive titles before PSG, with seven straight from 2002 to 2008.
- AS Monaco — The principality's club, known for developing young talents later sold for large fees.
