Lindsey Heaps’ next step has been confirmed, with the USWNT midfielder agreeing to leave OL Lyonnes for Denver Summit in a blockbuster move that has quickly taken over the headlines.
The development was revealed as part of a wider look at Americans playing abroad, but it was Heaps’ decision that stood out most, marking the end of her time in France and setting up a major switch to the NWSL’s new project in Denver.
Elsewhere, Alyssa Thompson led the way for Chelsea FC, battling through to deliver another influential display as she continued her strong run overseas.
The latest round of action again underlined the impact USWNT players are having across Europe, with key performances and major off-field news arriving at the same time — and Heaps’ agreement to join Denver Summit ensuring the biggest talking point belonged to the former Lyonnes star.
