The club was founded in 1932 in the northeastern French town of Mety in the Grand Est region. It was the merger of two amateur athletics clubs. It is one of the oldest teams in France, which soon took up football professionally. Many other teams were amateur for a long time.
Shortly after the club's formation, it played in Ligue 2, the second highest competition, starting in 1933. Although it spent relatively fewer seasons in Ligue 2 throughout its history, and played most of its seasons in the top competition, Ligue 1, it did not see success in the form of a title. Their best finish was second place, in the 1997/98 season. Their first appearance in the top flight was in 1935. The longest run of participation was from 1967 until 2001, when they were relegated for the first time in many years.
