Lucienne Anna Reichardt (born 1 May 1991) is a Dutch former footballer who played as a midfielder for West Ham United of the FA WSL in England.

Club career[edit]

Reichardt brought a successful six-year spell with ADO Den Haag to an end in summer 2014, because she wanted to complete her psychology studies and she had a persistent Achilles tendon injury. Two years later she found a doctor who performed surgery allowing her to return to top level football. Instead of rejoining ADO Den Haag, she signed for her girlhood club AFC Ajax.[1]

In July 2018, Reichardt transferred to West Ham United from Ajax.[2] She was part of the squad that reached the final of the 2018–19 FA Women's Cup, where she was an unused substitute.[3] On 7 May 2019, she announced her decision to retire from football at the end of the FA WSL season, aged 28, in order to pursue a career as a psychologist.[4] In her final professional match Reichardt stood in as West Ham's captain, but the team were beaten 4–0 by Brighton.[5]
