Senegal midfielder Dion Lopy extends Almeria contract until 2030

Senegal international midfielder Dion Lopy has committed his future to UD Almeria after signing a contract extension that will keep him at the Spanish club until June 2030.

The 24-year-old defensive midfielder was expected by some to consider a move away during the summer transfer window, but Almeria’s management has reaffirmed its confidence in his abilities and secured his long-term future with the club.

The Spanish side officially confirmed the contract renewal on Saturday, July 11, extending Lopy’s stay for another four seasons. The new agreement ensures that the Senegalese midfielder will remain an important part of Almeria’s plans as they continue their push for success in Liga 2, Spain’s second tier.

Lopy has already spent three seasons with Almeria, gradually establishing himself as a key figure in the team’s midfield. His consistency, discipline and ability to protect the defence have made him a valuable asset for the club’s technical staff.

Known for his defensive awareness, physical strength and ability to recover possession, Lopy provides balance in midfield and allows his teammates greater freedom to contribute in attacking areas. His energy and tactical intelligence have been among the qualities that convinced Almeria to secure his services for the long term.

The Senegalese international joined Almeria with a growing reputation and has continued to develop during his time in Spanish football. His performances have also earned him recognition at national team level, where he has represented Senegal and competed alongside some of the country’s top talents.

By extending Lopy’s contract, Almeria have demonstrated their commitment to building stability within the squad. The club sees the midfielder as a key component of its sporting project and believes his experience and qualities will be crucial in their ambitions for the coming seasons.

The decision also provides clarity over Lopy’s immediate future after speculation surrounding a possible departure. With his new deal running until 2030, the midfielder can now focus fully on helping Almeria achieve their objectives.

For Lopy, the contract extension represents a show of trust from the club and an opportunity to continue his progress in Spanish football. The Senegalese star will now aim to play a leading role as Almeria compete in Liga 2 and work towards their long-term goal of returning to the top flight.
