Where to play soccer clubs and fields Clermont-Ferrand

Clermont Foot gained popularity in the early 2000s with the rise to Ligue 2. In 2019, the club was bought by Ahmet Schaefer, former assistant to former FIFA president Sepp Blatter. In June 2020, the club celebrated its 30th anniversary. This anniversary paved the way for a new decade that was to be glorious. Indeed, the club has been shining since 2021, with its entry into League 1. The team, supported by the entire city, is evolving under the leadership of coach Pascal Gastien. The club confirms its role as a real springboard.

Its name pays tribute to the former mayor of Clermont-Ferrand and resistance fighter, Gabriel Montpied (1944-1973). Located in the Champratel district in the north of the city, it was inaugurated in 1995. This stadium is the home of Clermont Foot, a professional club that now plays in Ligue 1. The stadium is gradually increasing its capacity. In 2024, it should accommodate 16,200 people, compared to 10,800 today, including 3,200 modular seats. The parking lot capacity will increase to 1,700 spaces. This will be only the beginning of a long transformation in three phases, with the objective of reaching a capacity of 30,000 spaces in the long term. Expansion work is scheduled to begin in 2023.
