  • LOSC (Lille Olympique Sporting Club) and Team Vitality are extending their EA FC Esports partnership for the third consecutive season
  • The roster will be made up of young French talents Ilian Bouchi (19) and Brice Masson (20), who will be coached by Johann ‘ManiiKa’ Simon, who also renews his contract with Team Vitality
  • Together, ambitious goals have already been established for the 2024/25 season, aiming to win the highly coveted and anticipated eLigue 1 McDonald’s at the domestic level, and qualify for the 2025 Esports World Cup at the international level.

French sports club Lille Olympique Sporting Club (LOSC) and leading esports organisation Team Vitality are excited to announce the renewal of their partnership for the third season running. The partnership for the 2024/25 season will be centered around their star EA FC 25 (EA Sports) roster, with both clubs united by their shared values of ambition and success.

A RENEWED COMMITMENT TOWARDS EXCELLENCE

The two clubs are back on the virtual football stage, joining forces again for a third season in eLigue 1. With a strong team lineup and improved training conditions, the goals are higher than ever.

The team will continue using the world-class training facilities, alternating between home sessions and bootcamps at Team Vitality’s V.Performance centre at the Stade de France. They will also have exclusive access to Domaine de Luchin, LOSC’s state-of-the-art training centre, and the opportunity to attend Lille club matches.

For LOSC, whose real-world football team is currently competing for a spot in the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League, the partnership with Team Vitality ensures continued participation in an official Professional Football League competition this season. The global appeal of EA FC25, one of the most widely consumed cultural products worldwide, provides unparalleled visibility for the club, its players, and its partners.

The goals are clear for both clubs: to secure their first national eLigue 1 McDonald’s title, and to win their first international competition. The players will also be aiming to qualify for the 2025 Esports World Cup, now a flagship event on the global stage.

Extending our partnership with LOSC for a third season is a true source of pride. It reflects our shared vision and commitment to pushing the boundaries between traditional sports and esports. Together, we’re investing in rising domestic talents like Ilian and Brice, and this new season promises exciting opportunities for our players and clubs, both in France, and internationally. We’re ready to seize these winning opportunities!” explains Nicolas Maurer, Co-Founder and CEO of Team Vitality.

“It’s a pleasure to announce the renewal of the partnership between LOSC and Team Vitality, one of Europe’s leading esports organisations, as we bring our drive for victory to the virtual pitch of EA Sports FC once again. It’s in the DNA of LOSC to never give up and perform to our maximum potential, and I wish our LOSC esports team the very best as they represent the colours and values of Les Dogues!” Olivier Létang, CEO of LOSC

A YOUNG TEAM, DETERMINED TO SEEK VICTORY

The LOSC and Team Vitality roster consists of two prodigal French talents: Ilian Bouchi and Brice Masson. Despite their youth, both bring immense energy and motivation to the team. Under the guidance of coach ManiiKa, the players are ready to dominate the highest level, embodying the spirit and values of both clubs.

Full Roster

  • Ilian Bouchi (19 years old) is an explosive young talent who joins Team Vitality for the second consecutive year.
