Jonathan David

Biography

Jonathan Christian David (born January 14, 2000) is a professional soccer player who plays as a forward for La Liga club Atlético Madrid, on loan from Serie A club Juventus, and the Canada national team. Born in the United States, David moved with his family to his parents' home country of Haiti as a baby and immigrated to Ottawa, Canada at the age of six. Raised in the Franco-Ontarian community of East Ottawa, he played for several local youth clubs before moving to Belgium in 2018, where he recorded his professional debut for KAA Gent. After two seasons at Gent, David joined French side Lille for a reported €30 million, making him the most expensive Canadian transfer to date, the most expensive signing in Lille's history, and the first Canadian to play in France.
