Son of George Weah, former president of Liberia and elected Ballon d'Or in 1995, American international Timothy Weah spent four seasons at LOSC, between 2019 and 2023 (107 matches, 8 goals, 8 assists), where he was arrived from PSG.
His debut in the North had been marred by numerous injuries, but he then held a luxury replacement role within the crowned French champion team under the orders of Christophe Galtier during the 2020-2021 season, before establishing itself even more the following year. At the start of the summer of 2023, he left the North for Juventus Turin, but his attachment to Lille remained intact.
