A large number of professional players grew up in Paris and began their career playing local football.^[2]

Derbies edit

The last local derby in Ligue 1 was the Paris derby in the 1989–90 season between Paris Saint-Germain and Racing Paris. In total, the clubs met regularly for 5 seasons, in the 1984–85 season and from the 1986–87 to the 1989–90 seasons continuously.^{[citation needed]} In the 21st century, most derbies have been played between Créteil, Paris FC, and Red Star in the second and third tiers.^{[citation needed]}
