Manissieux St Priest before joining Olympique Lyonnais in 2009.[1] She made her senior debut for Lyon in the 2014–2015 Division 1 Féminine season.[2][3] She was rewarded with her first professional contract in 2015.[2] In January 2017, her season was ended early due to a knee injury.[4] By 2018, she had won three UEFA Women's Champions League and three Division 1 titles with Olympic Lyonnais.[5]

She is already a great player, despite her young age."[7] In 2016, Cascarino made her senior debut for France against the England women's national football team.[8]
