Dion Lopy (born 2 February 2002) is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for club AlmerÃÂa and the Senegal national team.
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.
Lopy played briefly for Reims' second team in the Championnat National 2, before making his Ligue 1 debut in a 2âÂÂ2 draw with Stade Rennais on 4 April 2021. In the 2022âÂÂ23 season, he became a first-team regular at Reims, benefitting from manager Will Still's preference for a younger age profile to his squad.
On 5 August 2023, Lopy was announced at La Liga side AlmerÃÂa on a six-year contract.
Lopy played for Senegal throughout the youth levels, representing them at the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup and the 2019 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations where they were runners-up.
Lopy made his debut for the senior Senegal national team on 3 August 2019, in a 3âÂÂ0 victory over Liberia. He had to wait until 28 March 2023 for his second first team appearance, a 1âÂÂ0 away victory over Mozambique.
