What Dumornay had to say: “I’m very proud of what I’ve achieved so far. I still have things to learn to progress. I learn from the best people around me. I’m very determined to learn everything there is to learn. I want to win titles.”
Dumornay’s statistics are equally impressive on the international stage. She represents Haiti, netting 20 goals in 20 games. And also scored six goals in this season’s Women’s Champions League. Her football intelligence and speed make her the perfect midfielder and a major offensive threat.
