On October 22, French Ligue 1 club Marseille officially announced that it would retire the No. 30 jersey worn by Mandanda.

The 40-year-old French goalkeeper Mandanda has played for Marseille twice and played for Marseille for a total of 14 seasons. Mandanda announced his retirement this summer. In order to commemorate the goalkeeper, Marseille Club announced on its official website that it will retire the Marseille No. 30 jersey that Mandanda wore in the past.

Pablo Longoria, chairman of Marseille Club, said: "14 seasons, 613 games, 318 times as captain. A legend of Marseille. The club decided to hold a tribute ceremony during the game against Le Havre (which is also his youth training team) and permanently seal his No. 30 jersey. Mandanda's name and career have become part of the history of Marseille Club."
