Timothy Weah

He came on as a substitute in the 79th minute of the match and had a goal-scoring opportunity in stoppage time that was saved by the Troyes goalkeeper.

Weah made his first start for Paris Saint-Germain in a 0–0 draw against Caen on the last day of the Ligue 1 season.

Weah is the son of George Weah, the former President of Liberia, who was previously also a professional soccer player, having won the Ballon d'Or in 1995.

Timothy Tarpeh Weah (born February 22, 2000) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a winger for Serie A club Juventus and the United States national team.

Weah was born on February 22, 2000, in Brooklyn, New York, to Liberian George Weah (at the time a professional soccer player) and his Jamaican wife Clar.

Weah played three seasons with BW Gottschee, a team in the U.S. Soccer Development Academy system, and transferred to the New York Red Bulls Academy in 2013.

He had a trial with Chelsea at the age of 13.

Weah relocated to France in 2014 to join the Paris Saint-Germain Academy.

In his first start with the academy team, he scored a hat-trick in an 8–1 victory for PSG over Bulgarian side Ludogorets Razgrad in the UEFA Youth League.

On July 3, 2017, Weah signed a three-year professional contract with French club Paris Saint-Germain, joining the club that his father had played for in the 1990s.

He spent most of the season with the reserves in the Championnat National 2 and the under-19 squad in the UEFA Youth League.

Weah made his professional debut for Paris Saint-Germain in 2018, winning Ligue 1 twice and the Trophée des Champions once.

In March 2018, he earned his first senior international cap for the United States.

He was part of the squad that won the 2021 and 2023 CONCACAF Nations League Finals, and played at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

George Weah was elected as the 25th President of Liberia in 2018, after serving three years in the Senate of Liberia.

Weah has two older siblings, George Jr. and Tita.

He spent his early life in Brooklyn, Valley Stream, New York, and Pembroke Pines, Florida.

Weah is fluent in English and French and enjoys producing trap soul music.

He is close friends with fellow soccer player Tyler Adams, as well as former Lille teammates Jonathan David and Angel Gomes.

His cousin, Kyle Duncan, is also a professional soccer player for New York Red Bulls in Major League Soccer.

He is not related to Liberian-born soccer player Patrick Weah.

Weah was taught soccer by his father and while in Florida played for West Pines United, before moving back to New York and joining the Rosedale Soccer Club in Queens, New York, owned by his uncle.

Weah was named to the first-team squad for a Ligue 1 fixture against Troyes on March 3, 2018, while the club's starting forwards were rested for an upcoming Champions League match.

Weah scored his first competitive goal for PSG during a 4–0 win against Monaco in the Trophée des Champions on August 4, 2018.

He scored his first league goal a week later in the club's season opener, a 3–0 win over Caen.

He won a Scottish Premiership and Scottish Cup double on loan at Celtic in 2019.

He then joined Lille, winning another Ligue 1 title and Trophée des Champions in 2021.

He joined Celtic on a six-month loan on January 7, 2019, and said that he was "in love" with the club.

He made his debut on January 19 as a 69th-minute substitute for Scott Sinclair in a Scottish Cup fourth round match at home to Airdrieonians and scored in a 3–0 win.

Weah's second goal for Celtic, and his first in the league, came in a 4–0 victory over St Mirren on January 23.

In February 2019 he was added to Celtic's Europa League squad.

With Celtic, he won the Scottish Premiership and the team advanced to the Scottish Cup final.

Weah's loan spell at Celtic was terminated early by the club in May after he was selected to the US squad for the Under-20 World Cup, causing him to miss the Scottish Cup final.

On June 29, 2019, Weah signed a five-year contract with Lille, starting on July 1.

The undisclosed fee was reported by L'Équipe to be €10 million ($11.37 million).

He made his debut on August 11, starting in a 2–1 home win over Nantes.

He played 68 minutes before being substituted for Yusuf Yazıcı.

Weah made three appearances for Lille throughout the 2019–20 season, but he missed most of the season due to injury; Weah suffered two hamstring injuries that kept him out of the bulk of the Ligue 1 season.

The first injury occurred in a game against Amiens, keeping him out for six months, then the second occurred during his first match back with the team in a game against Marseille.

His injury was successfully operated in March 2020 by surgeon Lasse Lempainen in Turku, Finland.
