Daphne Marie Corboz (born June 14, 1993) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a midfielder for Manchester City Women. She joined the club in July 2015 after a four-year career with the Georgetown University women's soccer team, with whom she was a three-time All-America selection by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, including first-team honors in 2012 after her sophomore season.[2] She finished her college career with 47 goals, a school record.[3] Before Georgetown, she attended Watchung Hills Regional High School in New Jersey and played club soccer with PDA Tsunami.[4]
Corboz made her FA WSL debut on July 12, 2015, coming on as a second-half substitute against Birmingham City.[5] She scored her first goal for Manchester City the following weekend in a 3–0 win over Bristol Academy.[6]
She was accepted to medical school at Rutgers University near her home in New Jersey and was chosen by Sky Blue FC, her hometown club, with the 22nd pick in the 2015 NWSL College Draft in January 2015.[7] She eventually chose to postpone medical school and signed with Manchester City in July 2015.[8]
Corboz was called up to the United States Under-23 team in late 2014 and played at the 2015 Four Nations Tournament in Norway.[3]
Born to French-born parents, Michel and Christine, Corboz has a dual citizenship with France. She was born in Mobile Alabama, where her father, a former semi-professional player in Grenoble, was pursuing his postdoctoral research at the University of South Alabama. Her younger brother, Mael played soccer for Rutgers before transferring to Maryland, and she was teammates at Georgetown with younger sister Rachel, who was a freshman when Daphne was a senior.[9]
