Yanis Sellami
Another talented kid who chose OM. A hardworking midfielder, his future is written in blue and white.
Originally from Vichy, Yanis Sellami is another example of the club's new strategy focused on promising youth. Arriving at OM in 2021, this right-footed defensive midfielder has climbed the ranks with determination. The signing of his first professional contract in December 2024, tying him to the club until 2027, is a tangible proof of the trust the management places in him.
Just like Bakola and Lafont, Sellami is part of the special development program for young talents, designed to prepare them for the demands of professional football. This initiative clearly shows a desire to build the future with players trained at the club. A French international in youth categories (U16, U17, U18), he is a nationally recognized talent. His profile as a hardworking midfielder, capable of playing as a sentinel or a relay player, is valuable. The supporters, who closely follow the emergence of young players, consider him a "top young player to watch."
For the 2025/26 season, the challenge for Yanis Sellami will be to continue his learning alongside the professional squad, gain maturity, and seize the opportunities that arise. He represents, along with his young teammates, the promise of an OM that looks to the future by relying on its own strengths.
