Delphine Cascarino

Delphine Cascarino (born 5 February 1997) is a French professional footballer who plays as a winger or forward for Division 1 Féminine club Lyon and the France national team.

Club career
Cascarino started playing football for her local youth teams of A.S. St. Priest and A.S. A.S. Manissieux St Priest before joining Lyon in 2009. She made her senior debut for Lyon in the Division 1 Féminine in the 2014–15 season. She was rewarded with her first professional contract in 2015. In January 2017, her season was ended early due to a knee injury. By 2018, she had won three UEFA Women's Champions League and three Division 1 titles with Olympic Lyonnais.

On 25 May 2023, Lyon said she would be sidelined for "several months" after rupturing an anterior cruciate ligament.

International career
In 2012, Cascarino was selected to play for the France women's national under-17 football team, where she was part of their 2012 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup winning campaign. Her captain Sandie Toletti said of Cascarino: "It's a great discovery, knowing that she was not part of the last European championship. She is already a great player, despite her young age."

In 2016, Cascarino made her senior debut for France against England. In July 2024, she was named in France's squad for the 2024 Olympics.

Personal life
Cascarino is the twin sister of Estelle Cascarino, also a football player, who played alongside her sister at Lyon before moving to Paris FC in 2016. They are not related to Tony Cascarino, although they are often asked if they are: "I am often asked if I am from his family, that is not the case... I know that he notably played for Nancy and that he is Irish. Me, I'm not Irish at all! (laughs)" Her father is Italian and her mother comes from Guadeloupe.
