Olympique de Marseille just missed out on Champions League qualification, but recorded 60 league points, an improvement on previous seasons. New signing Franck Ribéry got an international breakthrough, being linked to transfers to several European top clubs and being instrumental in France reaching the final of the World Cup. In spite of all rumours, Ribéry would stay at the club for a further season. That did not apply to manager Jean Fernandez, who left for Auxerre at the end of the season.
