Lois Openda

Lois Openda of Juventus was born in Liège, Belgium on 16 February 2000 (age 26).

Lois Openda, born on 16 February 2000 (age 26), is a Belgian striker with Juventus. His current market value is around £51m, according to Transfermarkt, which says enough about how highly the wider market still rates him.

His strongest league return so far came at RB Leipzig in 2023–24, when he scored 24 goals in 34 appearances. That was the sort of season that changes how a forward is viewed: not promise, not potential, but production over a full campaign.

At Juventus in 2025–26, Openda has remained a regular first-team presence, though the scoring has been modest. He has made 24 Serie A appearances with one goal, along with two Coppa Italia appearances and eight in the Champions League, where he has scored once. Across all competitions for Juventus, he has 34 appearances and two goals.

Openda’s career now sits between proven output and a quieter spell in Italy. He remains involved often enough for Juventus, but his current season is being carried more by selection than by goals.

After emerging at Club Brugge, he produced 28 goals across two seasons on loan at Vitesse, then scored 21 for Lens and 33 across two full seasons at RB Leipzig. The Juventus season was a clear drop in output, with his role narrowing despite a strong recent scoring record elsewhere.

The transfer history shows a rapid climb in level and valuation. Openda moved from Club Brugge to Vitesse on loan, then joined Lens for a fee of €8.8m before RB Leipzig paid €37m in 2023. His 2025 move to Juventus was a loan rather than another permanent fee, suggesting a high-value forward being tested at an elite club after his Leipzig output dipped from 24 goals to nine.
