Magic Collectors Aubagne, located in the Napoleon district, is organizing a world preview of the new Premium Panini Iconz collection on Sunday, July 20, from 11am to 8pm. This event, organized for the third year in a row by Hervé Bercane with the support of Panini France, brings together fans of football and Panini cards. The event is particularly notable for the presence of three former players from the Olympique de Marseille: Jean-Marc Ferreri, Jean-Philippe Durand (winners of the Champions League in 1993) and Marc Libbra. Visitors will have the opportunity to preview rare cards, available for purchase by box or box, and enjoy an on-site drink and snack. An online sale will also be launched at 3pm on the Voggt platform. The event is private and requires a mandatory reservation on www.magic-collectors.com.

In parallel with this event, Olympique de Marseille began its pre-season with an internship in the Netherlands, marking the beginning of the second year of Roberto De Zerbi at the head of the club. The Italian picker selected 28 players for this preparation period, focusing on consolidating his game principles and preparing for future deadlines, including the preliminary rounds of the Europa League. Several players, including Ruben Blanco, Bamo Meïté and Azzedine Ouahi, do not appear in the main group, but train with the reserve team pending a decision on their future.

This internship in the Netherlands is the first of a series of events planned for OM this summer, including several friendly meetings in order to refine the preparation before European competitions. The Magic Collectors event and the OM internship illustrate the importance of community and preparation for football enthusiasts. The Magic Collectors initiative, which already attracts a hundred collectors a year, promises a day full of discoveries for card lovers to collect, while the OM internship gives an overview of the club’s ambitions and tactical choices for the new season.
