Viviane Asseyi (born November 20, 1993 in Mont-Saint-Aignan , Département Seine-Maritime ) is a French soccer player . She has been under contract with FC Bayern Munich since July 2020 .

Club career

When she was six, her parents registered Viviane Asseyi with the US Quevilly . There the striker was appointed to the French youth B team for the first time in her last season (2007/08) (see below) . In 2008 she moved to the big neighboring club FC Rouen , for whom she made her debut in the second division at the age of 14. Her steady sporting development - after the first half of the 2009/10 season she led the list of scorer in Division 2 - aroused the interest of several top clubs ; At the turn of the year 2009/2010, HSC Montpellier finally brought them from Normandy to Languedoc . At Montpellier, Asseyi played for a good six years in the women's premier league and stood with her teammates, including the undisputed striker of the national team, Marie-Laure Delie , three times in a row in the national cup finals from 2010 to 2012 , in which the opponents ( Paris Saint -Germain , AS Saint-Étienne and Olympique Lyon ) prevailed . In 2015, again against Lyon, she left the lawn of the final stadium with the MHSC as a loser. In her first half at Montpellier, she made her first two European appearances in the quarter-finals against Umeå IK . At the beginning of the 2016/17 season, Asseyi moved to first division promoted Olympique Marseille and, after its relegation two years later, to Girondins Bordeaux .

For the 2020/21 season she was signed by FC Bayern Munich and given a contract valid until June 30, 2022.

National player

Viviane Asseyi has played a total of 32 games for the French youth age group selection teams in the U-16, U-17 and U-19 age groups. In the second qualifying round for the U-19 European Championship 2012 she scored the goal of the day against the Netherlands; but that was not enough to reach the finals. In June 2013, the coach of the senior national team , Bruno Bini , invited her for the first time to a course in preparation for the European Championship finals and then called Asseyi into the French 23-man squad instead of Laëtitia Tonazzi, who was no longer fit in time . On June 29, 2013 in the friendly against Norway , she made her debut with the Bleues ; at the EM in Sweden, however, she did not play. By Bini's successor Philippe Bergeroo , she was occasionally and mainly used as a substitute; After she was not allowed to wear the blue dress for a year and a half, the new national coach Corinne Diacre Asseyi even started in the starting line-up in autumn 2017, where the striker scored her first goal. Viviane Asseyi was also appointed to the French 23-man squad for the 2019 World Cup in her own country .

So far, she has played a total of 42 A matches and scored seven goals. (As of March 10, 2020)
