Sarah Jacquelyn Luebbert (born December 16, 1997) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a winger for Liga MX Femenil side Club América.
College career
Luebbert played college soccer with the Missouri Tigers women's soccer team from 2016 to 2019, making 76 match appearances and scoring 29 goals, as well as winning multiple accolades during her three years stint with the team.
Club career
Previous to her professional career, Luebbert had a short spell with WPSL team Fire & Ice Soccer Club in 2018.
Chicago Red Stars (2020–2021)
In 2019, Luebbert registered in the 2020 NWSL draft, but she was not selected by any club. Luebbert signed her first professional contract with NWSL club Chicago Red Stars in June 2020, after being invited by the club to a training camp ahead of the 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup. Luebbert made her professional debut with the Red Stars in the 2020 Challenge Cup in a match against Portland Thorns on 1 July 2020.
2021–2022: Loan to Club América and Return to Chicago Red Stars
Chicago Red Stars announced on 30 August 2021, that Luebbert was being sent on loan for the remainder of 2021 to Liga MX Femenil side Club América so that she could get more play time. Luebbert made her debut with América on the same day that her loan was announced, in a match against Necaxa as part matchday 7 of the Apertura 2021. At the time of her arrival at América, Luebbert was just the second foreign player to play for the team.
Although Luebbert spent most of the regular phase of the Apertura 2021 tournament injured, she became an important player for the team during the liguilla, scoring goals against Chivas in the quarter-finals and against Tigres in the semi-finals.
With Luebbert's loan ending at the end of 2021, América announced on 1 January 2021 that Luebbert was staying with the team for the Clausura 2022 tournament after successfully negotiating an extension of her loan with Chicago Red Stars. During the Clausura 2022, Luebbert became a regular starter for América in the attack, scoring six goals in 16 match appearances.
Luebbert returned to Chicago Red Stars to play the 2022 NWSL season after América was knock-out in the quarter-finals of the Clausura 2022 liguilla. Luebbert made 16 match appearances and scored one goal during her return campaign with the Red Stars.
Club América (2023–present)
On 15 December 2022, Chicago Red Stars announced that Luebbert was being permanently transferred to Club América in exchange for an agreed upon transfer fee.
