Club career
Nice
Born in Toulon, Amavi made his Ligue 1 debut with Nice in the opening game of the 2013–14 season on 10 August 2013 against Lyon.[3]
Aston Villa
On 18 July 2015 he signed for Premier League side Aston Villa on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee, reported to be in the region of £9 million.[4][5][6] He made his debut on 8 August, playing the full 90 minutes of a 1–0 win over Bournemouth at Dean Court.[7] On 15 November, Amavi suffered an ACL tear in his right knee while on duty with the France U21 team, ending his first season at Aston Villa.[8]
Without Amavi, Villa were relegated to the EFL Championship, the second tier of English football, which lead to speculation on the future of Amavi as well as other Villa players.[9] However, Amavi decided to continue playing for Villa for the 2016–17 season, as he had high hopes on Villa being promoted immediately back up to the Premier League.[9] On 27 December 2016, Aston Villa turned down an £25 million bid from an undisclosed club from China for Amavi; reports in France also claimed that Marseille had also bid for the player.[10] That season, he made 34 appearances in the Championship for Villa, but they finished in a bottom-half thirteenth-place league finish.[11]
Marseille
On 10 August 2017, it was agreed that Amavi would join Ligue 1 side Olympique de Marseille on loan for the entirety of the 2017–18 season, with Marseille also considering interest in signing the player in a permanent transfer in the following season.[12]
Marseille decided to make Amavi's move permanent in October 2017, meeting an agreed clause in the loan contract.[13]
On 3 May 2018, he played in the Europa League semi-finals away to FC Red Bull Salzburg as Marseilles played out a 1–2 away loss but a 3–2 aggregate win to secure a place in the 2018 UEFA Europa League Final[14] to be played at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais in Décines-Charpieu, Lyon, France on 16 May 2018.[15] A double from Antoine Griezmann helped Atlético Madrid defeat Amavi's Marseille side 3–0 and win the trophy.[16]
Return to Nice (loan)
On 5 January 2022, Amavi returned to former club Nice on loan until the end of the 2021–22 season with an option to buy.[17]
Loan to Getafe
On 1 September 2022, Amavi was loaned to La Liga side Getafe for the season.[18]
International career
Amavi is of Togolese descent and was part of the France under-20 team which finished as runners-up to Brazil at the 2014 Toulon Tournament.[19]
He was called up to the senior France squad for a World Cup qualifier against Belarus in October 2017.[20]
