Le Mans reached Ligue 1 in 2026 by winning Ligue 2. The club had gone into liquidation on 15 October 2013, roughly 14.4 million euros in debt, and what came out the other side started again in the regional Division d'Honneur. The pandemic then dropped the club back to the National division in 2020, when the 2019/20 season was cut short. Le Mans returned to Ligue 2 in 2025 as runner-up in the National, and went straight through it the following year.

None of that was the club's first life. Le Mans FC formed on 12 June 1985 from a merger of Union Sportive du Mans and Stade Olympique du Maine, and traded for years under the name MUC 72 before adopting its current name in 2010. Didier Drogba started his professional career here in 1997, and Gervinho spent two seasons in the side, 59 appearances between 2007 and 2009.
