Stade Raymond-Kopa

Stade Raymond-Kopa in Angers is Angers SCO's Ligue 1 home, a classic provincial French ground named for a Ballon d'Or legend and filled with black-and-white local support. Compact stands create a proper football feel on survival or cup nights. Matchdays are industrious and proud. The Kopa name gives the venue national resonance beyond Angers.

Opened in 1912 as Stade Bessonneau and later Jean-Bouin before Raymond Kopa naming, it has long been SCO's home. Renovations accompanied Ligue 1 years in the 2010s and 2020s. Naming for Kopa honors a French football immortal with Polish roots tied to the region's story. The stadium's legacy is Angers' durable professional presence.
