The signature of KorbinAlbert, midfielder, made a sensation on Friday, sparking a keen interest in Olympique Lyonnais. This American player, whose country is known for her female football, officially signed for three seasons, until 2028. Its arrival is part of an ambitious recruitment policy of the Fenottes, which have considerably strengthened their workforce with notable movements. In particular, OL brought renowned players such as Julle Brand (Wolfsburg), Marie-Antoinette Katoto (PSG), Ingrid Engen (FC Barcelona) and Ashley Lawrence (Chelsea), in addition to Albert.

The 21-year-old KorbinAlbert provided valuable support to the Lyon Entrejeu after leaving the Paris Saint-Germain, where she was at the end of her contract. The announcement of his arrival has generated a considerable enthusiasm on social networks, as evidenced by the millions of views on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram. The number of video views of his arrival far exceeds that of the four previous recruits, reaching more than 4.4 million on X and more than 200,000 on Instagram.

The fans will have to wait to see KorbinAlbert in action, as Jonatan Giraldez’s group will resume training on 21 July. This promising recruit complements an already rich and talented workforce, and helps reinforce Olympique Lyonnais’ ambitions for the coming season. His arrival is a testament to the club’s willingness to remain at the forefront of European women’s football.
