Lindsey Horan was just 12 years old when she started playing soccer. She showed great potential. She was only 12 years old when she was recruited to the U12 Nike Team at the Colorado Rush Youth Soccer Club. Linda Horan, Linda's mother, encouraged her to pursue her professional goals and she was supported by her coach. She has not looked back since then. Today, she has played in 108 international games for the United States Women's National Team, scoring 25 goals and providing 34 assists.
Horan, despite being young, has already made an impact on the USWNT. Her 34 assists and 25 goals have earned Horan a place on the team's historical roster. She is a reliable starter who has been an integral part of the team's success.
France was where she started her career.
Lindsey Horan turned pro at age eighteen and joined Paris Saint-Germain. This shockwave shook the soccer world. Horan was already a talented player and had committed to play for the University of North Carolina, but she opted to stay in France and make a name for herself in the world of professional soccer.
Horan fell in love with Messi while she was still playing youth club. Horan's youth coach reached out to her after a family vacation to Spain and offered her a chance to try out for the French team. Horan, her family and a brief break from college led to Horan moving to France to train with the team. Horan did no official appearances with the team in an effort to maintain her NCAA eligibility.
She will be on loan to Olympique Lyonnais in France until June 2023.
USWNT's midfielder, Horan, has agreed to sign a loan deal with Olympique Lyon until June 2023. This will allow him to join the club for the 2019 season. Horan will join Catarina macario, USWNT teammate at the club. Both players have been with the Lyon team since last season, and they will continue to be part of this team.
Given Horan's European history, it is not surprising that she made this move. She was previously a Paris Saint-Germain player from 2012 to 2016. She recently won the Women's World Cup in Lyon and has since signed a contract extension with Thorns FC, which will see her remain in the US until 2025.
