Devastated by a partial rupture of her right knee in May 2023, Delphine Cascarino, the winger of OL and the French team, announced her return to competition in a few weeks. A major reinforcement for the Blues as the 2024 Olympics approach.

Followers of women’s football have not forgotten, it was without Marie-Antoinette Katoto but also Delphine Cascarino that the Blues played in the 2023 World Cup last summer in Australia. If the PSG center forward has been unavailable since Euro 2022, the OL winger suffered a partial rupture of the cruciate ligament in her right knee in May 2023, while she was then elected best player in D1 Arkéma.

Eight months later, Cascarino is ready to return to competition with the Lyonnaises, “ end of January, beginning of February », as she revealed to OL Play on the sidelines of the victory against Montpellier, Sunday in the Coupe de France (4-0). It will strengthen the Fenottes for the rest of the season, especially in the Champions League, Sonia Bompastor’s team having already escaped in the championship.

The 26-year-old Lyonnaise (she is a native of Saint-Priest) should quickly find the France group, which will give an additional high-quality option to Hervé Renard. The national coach has been working since the 2023 World Cup with Kadi Diani, Eugénie Le Sommer and Selma Bacha (on the left wing) and, with Katoto and Cascarino, the offensive sector of the French selection will be provided for the next Olympic tournament!
