Laval players have worn a tango and black jersey since the origin of the club

FAKE. A century-old club, founded in 1902, Stade Lavallois first opted for a black (top) and red (bottom) outfit, like its neighbors Stade Rennais, before evolving for around twenty years with a green and white striped jersey. It was only after the First World War that the famous tango tunic (a very bright orange-red) appeared, definitively adopted in 1923… Without really knowing why this color was chosen and then became established. definitely.

Paris FC is the French club that has changed colors the most often

TRUE. Difficult…Paris……
