Club career

Asseyi began her career with amateur club US Quevilly. Due to Quevilly not having a women's section, she played on a mixed team composed mostly of boys.[2] She later joined the women's section of football club FC Rouen, where the youngster scored 23 goals in 28 total appearances. She joined Montpellier midway through the 2009–10 season in January 2010 and played there until moving to Olympique de Marseille ahead of the 2016–17 season.[3]

In 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, she transferred to Bayern Munich in Germany. Upon her arrival at the club, she was welcomed by fellow French citizen Benjamin Pavard, who played for the men's side. She had been in conversations with Bayern about a transfer for a year prior to the move.[4]

On 2 August 2022, Asseyi joined Women's Super League club West Ham United.[5]

Personal life

Asseyi was born in France, and is of Gabonese descent.[6]
