While she gave up this WNBA season to focus on the French team, Marine Johannès might not do the same thing for the years to come.

The Frenchwoman wants to return across the Atlantic, as she was able to confirm recently.

Many absentees in this WNBA campaign, at least on the French side. Gabby Williams missed the start of this season to try to win gold at the Paris Olympics, but she decided to finish the season by signing with the Seattle Storm.

A good thing for her, even if Marine Johannès is not expected to imitate her.

Enough to disappoint many fans.

Marine Johannès towards a return to the WNBA?
A surprise is still possible, especially since many fans are calling for Johannès to return to the WNBA.

Her showmanship and her shooting would be very useful to several franchises, but we may have to wait until 2025 for that.

Because after the defeat in the final and in front of the media, the leader did not hide a little disappointment following this result against Team USA.

Marine Johannès (comments relayed by l’Equipe): ‘There is a little disappointment, but we made the best team in the world doubt.

We did not feel confident, and that does not happen every day. We finished at -1, unfortunately, but we can be proud.

What is it about? We have to play a perfect match, we did not do that at times, we made small mistakes, I think that a point is really nothing, it is a detail, we showed a good image. ”

A little bitterness, which Johannès will try to forget with the upcoming competitions. There will be the Olympic Games in 2028 of course and other international competitions.

But Marine’s presence is very uncertain at this point, she who does not necessarily want to give up on championships, including the WNBA in 2025.

Her priority? Returning across the Atlantic, whether it be to Liberty or elsewhere.

While waiting to land in Turkey for the coming months on the Mersin side, Johannès was honest about her future.

Johannès: “See you in 2028 in Los Angeles? Yes, why not… I’m not necessarily thinking about it. For my part, I want to work to play in the WNBA in the summers.

Afterwards, will that be compatible with the French team? I don’t know, those will be discussions to have. If they want me, that will be one of my goals.”

Will we see Marine Johannès again with a French team jersey? It’s far from certain.

The interested party wants to focus on her clubs, including a return to the WNBA for 2025.

This is clearly her priority at this time.
