When it comes to Paris football, perhaps everyone only knows that there is one big team, Paris Saint-Germain. But you may not know that in addition to the Parc des Princes, Paris once had such a glorious stadium - the Bauer Stade. Today, I will take you to understand this mysterious club, the Red Star of Paris, also known as the Red Star of Saint-Ouen.
Red Star!
Founded in 1897, Red Star Paris was the first football club in Paris and the second oldest football club in French history. His home stadium is located in a civilian neighborhood north of Paris, in a small community called Saint-Ouen.

In the face of today's wealthy Paris Saint-Germain, who would have thought that the Paris Red Star was actually decided to be established in an ordinary small café, and the reason for the establishment of the club is different from today's special gold absorption, but for the sake of society!
In today's era of golden dollar football, the club still maintains the original intention of the original team, which is admirable!

The founder of Red Star Paris was Remitt, who later became FIFA's longest-serving president. He was president of the French Football Federation for 27 years and FIFA for 34 years. In 1910, the club moved to what is now the Saint-Ouen area. In this place, the club can be said to truly embody its own values and team building philosophy, as always. This area, from that year to the present, is an area where French immigrants gather, and the club has also quickly integrated into the environment and received a warm welcome from the masses! The former French president called Red Star "diverse and multicultural France"! It can be seen that the praise for its social influence is evident!
The Red Star of History!
It was he, after World War I, who realized that football could be used to make people regain confidence and face life positively, and he did. He also set up the slogan of "strengthening the body and awakening the heart" for the team.
Historically, the Paris Star has been very popular, although it has now been mixed in the lower leagues and even amateur leagues, but the former Paris Red Star has also won the French Cup five times, and the last time this title was achieved during the German occupation of France in 1942.
The glory of yesteryear

The scenery was infinite, and now it can only show how sad it is.
You think this is the end of the red star?

Rather than being a professional club, he is a non-profit organization that lives in people's daily lives, where fans all gather together and enjoy life in the dullness. The Red Star of Paris also did not have decent management for a long time, so much so that it once worked hard in the sixth division.
The arrival of Chairman Haddad, who was inspired to lead Red Star out of the quagmire, finally rose to Ligue 2 after 15 years, and now it seems to have fallen again, there is no way. The current market has been reconstructed, and if you want to retain it, you can only increase investment.

Perhaps, in the near future, we will see another team in Paris appear in Ligue 1!
In order to make everyone look forward to this team, we specially found the story of that year to tell you. In 1936, the Chinese team preparing for the Olympic Games, under the leadership of Li Huitang, played football all the way from Asia to Europe. The team led by Li Qiuwang is here to force the Paris Red Star to draw!
In order to sign the Asian king before Arsenal (yes, the Arsenal in the Premier League), the Red Star general manager personally found the player with a contract. However, professional players were not allowed to participate in the Olympic Games that year, so for the honor of the motherland, Li Huitang refused the invitation of Red Star.
So, did this team attract you?
