Stephy Alvaro Mavididi (born 31 May 1998) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for French club Montpellier.

Club career

Arsenal

Born in Derby,[3] Mavididi began his career at Southend United before joining Arsenal at the age of 13.[4] He turned professional with Arsenal in July 2015.[5]

Mavididi joined Charlton Athletic on loan on 31 January 2017 until the end of the season.[6] However, following an injury in his fifth game for the club, he returned to Arsenal on 1 March 2017, having made three starts and two substitute appearances.[7]

He signed on loan for Preston North End in August 2017.[8][9][10]

On 3 January 2018, it was announced by Arsenal that Mavididi had returned to the club and was then subsequently sent on loan with Charlton Athletic.[11] In his first game of his second loan spell at Charlton he scored his first goal in professional football in a 1–0 win over Oldham Athletic.[12] In February 2018 he suffered a hamstring injury.[13]

Juventus

After eight years with Arsenal,[14] in August 2018, he signed for Italian club Juventus.[15] He was initially signed as a reserve player, having been scouted by Giorgio Chiellini's brother, but soon began training with the first team.[14] On 13 April 2019, Mavididi made his senior Juventus debut in a 2–1 away loss against S.P.A.L. in Serie A.[14][16][17] In doing so he became the first English player since David Platt in 1992 to play for Juventus.[14] Juventus won the Serie A title in his first season, but Mavidi did not receive a winner's medal as he had not played in enough matches.[14] Shortly after the championship title was confirmed, Mavididi learned that his father had died.[14]

On 29 August 2019, he joined French club Dijon on loan.[18]

Montpellier

On 30 June 2020, Mavididi joined French club Montpellier in a permanent deal worth €6.3 million.[19]

International career

Mavididi was born in England and is of Congolese descent.[20] Mavididi has played for England at under-17 youth level, representing them at the 2015 UEFA European Under-17 Championship,[5] and the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup.[3] He has also played for England at under-18 and under-19 levels.[21]
