Player Info

Alban Lafont is an athletic and commanding Ivorian goalkeeper who has established himself as a key figure for Greek giants Panathinaikos. The 27-year-old, born in the Ivory Coast but raised in France's famed Clairefontaine academy, began his professional career with Toulouse FC, where he quickly became the youngest regular starting goalkeeper in Ligue 1 history. His reflexes, agility, and confidence beyond his years earned him a big move to Fiorentina in Serie A. After periods of adaptation in Italy, a transfer to Panathinaikos has reignited his career, where his shot-stopping heroics have been central to the club's domestic and European campaigns. Lafont has been a mainstay for the Ivory Coast national team, representing his country at the Africa Cup of Nations. His career honors include a Greek Cup victory and individual recognition such as being named in the Ligue 1 Team of the Season during his time at Nantes. With a €3 million market value, Lafont is considered one of the top goalkeepers in the Greek Super League, a player whose experience in major European leagues brings immense value to his team.
