The queen still does not descend from her throne. Melchie Daëlle Dumornay, better known as Corventina, continues to make history in women's football. The Haitian international was elected best female player of Concacaf for the 2024-2025 season, an award she wins for the second consecutive year.
The announcement was made on Thursday, November 6, 2025, by the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (Concacaf), thus confirming the Olympique Lyonnais player's dominance on the regional stage. "There was never any doubt! Melchie Dumornay is the Concacaf Women's Player of the Year 2024/25," the body proudly published on its official networks.
At just 21 years old, the Mirebalais native continues to inspire a whole nation. Under the colors of Olympique Lyonnais Féminin, she had a high-flying season. Corventina played a central role in winning the D1 Arkema championship title, finishing as the second-best goal scorer in the league.
But she also distinguished herself in the Women's Champions League. Against giants like AS Roma, Bayern Munich, or Arsenal, Dumornay shone with her talent, her vision of the game, and her offensive impact. Her performances earned her the title of best young player of the competition and a spot in the European Team of the Season.
Ranked 16th in the 2025 Women's Ballon d'Or, Corventina continues to write an exceptional history for Haitian football. Her second consecutive Concacaf title not only confirms her consistency at the highest level but also her status as an icon of women's sports in the region.
Haiti can be proud: the queen of women's football in North, Central America, and the Caribbean is indeed Haitian. And at this rate, Melchie Daëlle Dumornay does not seem ready to give up her crown.
