Reims

Lopy played youth football for the Oslo Football Academy in the 3rd tier of Senegalese football, before being signed for a compensatory fee by French club Stade de Reims in 2020 after Lopy represented Senegal at the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[2]

Lopy played briefly for Reims' second team in the Championnat National 2, before making his Ligue 1 debut in a 2–2 draw with Stade Rennais on 4 April 2021.[3] In the 2022–23 season, he became a first-team regular at Reims, benefitting from manager Will Still's preference for a younger age profile to his squad.[4][5]

Almería

[edit]

On 5 August 2023, Lopy was announced at La Liga side Almería on a six-year contract.[6]

International career

[edit]

Lopy played for Senegal throughout the youth levels, representing them at the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup[2] and the 2019 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations where they were runners-up.[7]

Lopy made his debut for the senior Senegal national team on 3 August 2019, in a 3–0 victory over Liberia.[8] He had to wait until 28 March 2023 for his second first team appearance, a 1–0 away victory over Mozambique.[9]
