OL Reign and Spain international fullback Celia Jimenez Delgado is headed to France for the next nine months, with the team announcing today that she has been loaned to sister club Olympique Lyonnais of Division 1 Féminine through June, where she will be reunited with former Reign forward Jodie Taylor. A second-year Reign player, Celia finishes her 2020 Reign season with four appearances – two starts and two as a substitute – in the NWSL Challenge Cup.
“I appreciate the Reign making it possible for me to pursue this opportunity with OL,” said Celia in a team release.
