Georges Dard (28 June 1918 – 2 May 2001) was a French footballer who played midfielder.
Dard was the son of a former Olympique de Marseille president, Gabriel Dard. He began his football career with Marseille, helping the club win the 1943 Coupe de France Final and 1947–48 French Division 1 title.[1] After a disagreement with club leadership, Dard joined Spain's Sevilla FC in October 1948, joining his brother, Roger, who was a striker for the club.[2][3] One season later, he returned to Marseille where he would spend most of his remaining seasons.[4]
Dard scored 65 Ligue 1 goals for Marseille, placing him in the all-time top ten.[5]
