Lalaïna Henintsoa Nomenjanahary (born 16 January 1986) is a former Malagasy professional footballer who played as a midfielder.[2][1][3]

Early and personal life

[edit]

Nomenjanahary grew up in a poor family in Antananarivo. During his youth, he made toys from recycled tin cans to sell them.[4] He is married to Julia and since arriving in France, most of his and his wife's family live there as well.[4]

Known for his speed, Nomenjanahary is sometimes referred to by his childhood nickname Bolida.[5] He is good friends with fellow Malagasy footballer Faneva Imà Andriatsima[5] and he looks up to Hervé Arsène as a mentor.

Club career

[edit]

Early on, Nomenjanahary gained attention as a wing-back. His first club was Ajesaia before moving to play on the island of Réunion.[4]

On the advice of fellow Malagasy player Hervé Arsène, Nomenjanahary decided to sign for Arsène's former club RC Lens in 2012.[4] After two seasons, Nomenjanahary's impressive performances earned him a new three-year contract, keeping him at the club until 2016.[5] When Lens made their return to the Ligue 1 in the 2014–15 season, Nomenjanahary played 26 of the team's 38 matches, and in the third game of the season he scored the only goal in a shock 1–0 win over Olympique Lyonnais.[6] Despite this, Lens ended the season in the bottom of the table and were relegated. On 11 May 2016, after four years with Lens, Nomenjanahary's contract expired.[7][8]

On 9 September 2016, Nomenjanahary joined fellow Ligue 2 team Paris FC on a one-year contract.[9][10] On 10 October 2016, Nomenjanahary scored his first goals for Paris as he netted a brace in a 7–0 victory over Val d'Europe in the fifth round of the Coupe de France.[11]

In 2021, after his contract with Paris FC expired, he joined 4th-tier side Paris 13 Atletico.

International career

[edit]

From 2006 to 2021, Nomenjanahary made 44 appearances and scored 5 goals for the Madagascar national team, including one at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt in a surprise victory over Nigeria.[12] He has said that it is his dream for Madagascar to qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.[4]
