Claire Marie Annie Lavogez (born 18 June 1994) is a French professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for NWSL club Kansas City Current.

Club career[edit]

A midfielder, she joined Lyon on a three-year deal in 2015.[2] Prior to joining Lyon, she played four seasons with Montpellier and had single season spells with FCF Hénin-Beaumont and US Gravelines Foot.

On 20 July 2022, NWSL club Kansas City Current announced the signing of Lavogez on a contract until the end of the 2023 season.[3]

International career[edit]

With the French under-20 team, Lavogez played in the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup and scored a celebrated goal against Costa Rica.[4] She ended the tournament with 4 goals in 6 games earning her the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup Bronze Ball as the third best player in the tournament. Lavogez and France finished in 3rd place, defeating North Korea in the Bronze medal match.[5] October 2014 she made her senior France debut in a 2–0 win over Germany.

In the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup quarter-final, substitute Lavogez had her crucial penalty saved by Nadine Angerer in France's penalty shootout defeat by Germany. Lavogez also attracted criticism for a "comically bad" dive during regulation time.[6]

Lavogez competed for France at the 2016 Summer Olympics.[7]
