After the end of the season at her Los Angeles club, Amandine Henry is looking for a two-month challenge in Europe and it is PSG that she could sign. Negotiations are progressing well.

Five months after leaving OL, where she became one of the best players in the world (winning the French championship 14 times and the Champions League seven times), Amandine Henry is ready to play again in women’s D1. Angel City FC’s season ended on October 21 in the NWSL playoffs and the Californian club will not resume until next March. The French international midfielder, 34, is looking for “freelance” work in the country.

It is PSG who could welcome Henry for several weeks, especially after losing French international Oriane Jean-François to injury. “ Indeed, there are currently discussions between PSG and Amandine Henry. Will they succeed? I do not know. As soon as the extension projects have progressed, we will ask ourselves the question of the winter transfer window », replied the coach of the Rouge et Bleu, Jocelyn Prêcheur, at a press conference.

During her first stint in the United States, at Portland Thorns FC from 2016 to 2017, the Northerner had already signed for PSG, in January 2017, as part of a two-month loan, in order to reunite with her former coach Patrice Lair . She had played six matches (for three goals scored). Before returning to the Los Angeles sun, Amandine Henry will spend the holidays in France before returning to PSG, where Estelle Cascarino and Sakina Karchaoui play in particular.
