History

Foundation and early years (1915–42)

PSM was founded on 2 November 1915 as (MVB). They are considered the oldest competitive football club in Indonesia and one of the oldest in South East Asia. MVB changed its name to during the 1942-45 Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies that forced all organizations with Dutch names to be renamed.

Perserikatan era (1942–94)

Some of the early players of PSM were regularly called to the Indonesia national football team, the most famous of them was the club legend Ramang. PSM won their first Perserikatan title in 1957 after defeating PSMS Medan. They also managed to win this national amateur championship in 1959, 1965, 1966 and 1992.

Modern era (1994–present)

After the merger of Perserikatan and Galatama in 1994 that led to the professionalization of teams that once mainly depend on the local government budget, PSM won their first and only Indonesia national professional title in 2000. The squad combined national team players from outside Makassar, such as Miro Baldo Bento, Aji Santoso, Bima Sakti, Kurniawan Dwi Yulianto and Hendro Kartiko, and local talents, such as Ronny Ririn, Syamsudin Batola, Yusrifar Djafar, dan Rachman Usman. They won the 1999–2000 Liga Indonesia Premier Division by only losing 2 from 31 matches.

PSM in 2011 joined the breakaway league Liga Primer Indonesia. They continued to play in the Indonesian Premier League organized by PT Liga Prima Indonesia Sportindo until 2013, before joining the Indonesia Super League again in the 2014 season. In 2021 PSM Makassar sacked Milomir Seslija mainly because of the poor performance PSM Makassar had this year, currently PSM Makaasar is in 12th place in Liga 1 (Indonesia)
