Aymeric Jean Louis Gérard Alphonse Laporte (born 27 May 1994) is a professional footballer who plays for Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr. Born in France, he plays for the Spain national team. He previously played for Basconia, Athletic Bilbao and Manchester City. Primarily a centre-back, Laporte can also play as a left-back.
When he joined Athletic Bilbao in 2010 at the age of 16, he became only the second French player—after Bixente Lizarazu—to play for them, going on to make 220 competitive appearances for the club. In January 2018, he signed for Manchester City. He was part of the side which won the first domestic treble in English men's football in 2019.
Born in France, Laporte won 51 caps for the country at youth level, and was called once to the senior team but remained uncapped. In 2021, after receiving Spanish citizenship and approval from FIFA to switch national teams from France to Spain, Laporte was named to Spain's squad for UEFA Euro 2020.
