Alexia Putellas Segura[note 1] (Catalan: Alèxia Putellas i Segura,[note 2] pronounced [alˈɛksiə puteʎəs] (listenⓘ);[8] born 4 February 1994), often known mononymously as Alexia,[9] is a Spanish professional footballer from Catalonia who plays as a midfielder or forward for Liga F club Barcelona and the Spain women's national team, both of which she captains. She previously played for Espanyol and Levante, and has represented Catalonia. Having won all major club and individual awards available to a European player by 2022,[10][11] she is widely regarded as one of the best female footballers of her generation, and one of the greatest of all time.[note 3] In 2022, women's football reporter Asif Burhan wrote that Putellas' "dedication to the sport has revolutionized the women's game."[18]

Putellas has played for Barcelona since 2012, after spending most of her youth career in the ranks of Espanyol. With Barcelona, she has won seven league titles, seven Copas de la Reina, and two UEFA Women's Champions League trophies. In Barcelona's 2020–21 season, she played an essential role as her team won the Champions League as well as the resulting continental treble, both for the first time in their history. Putellas then went on to win the UEFA Women's Player of the Year Award, the Ballon d'Or Féminin, and The Best FIFA Women's Player in 2021, becoming the first player to win all three in the same year. In 2022, despite missing the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 due to an ACL injury, she won all three awards again, becoming the first woman to win any of them in consecutive years.[10][19] Barcelona won the league and Champions League again in 2022–23, though Putellas was largely absent with the injury.

On the international stage, Putellas had success with Spain's youth national teams, winning two UEFA Women's U-17 Euros (in 2010 and 2011) as well as finishing second place in the 2012 UEFA Women's U-19 Euro. She made her debut for Spain's senior national team for the 2013 UEFA Women's Euro, and has since featured in four other major international competitions with the team: Spain's FIFA Women's World Cup debut in 2015, the 2017 Euro, the 2019 World Cup and the 2023 World Cup that Spain won.

As of October 2023, Putellas has the second-most all-time appearances for Barcelona behind former left-back Melanie Serrano,[20][21] and is their all-time top goalscorer. She also holds the record of most appearances for Spain with 113 caps, having surpassed Marta Torrejón's previous record of 90 caps in 2021.

Early life and education

They say that at school she played with all the boys and that she was the Maradona of the playground... because she dribbled around all of her classmates as if they were broomsticks.

– Putellas somewhat humorously described by La Sotana in their Gran Enciclopèdia del Barça[22]

Alèxia Putellas Segura was born on 4 February 1994, to Jaume Putellas Rota and Elisabet "Eli" Segura Sabaté in Mollet del Vallès, a municipality in the province of Barcelona.[23][24] She has a younger sister, Alba.[25][26] Putellas has been a supporter of FC Barcelona since her early childhood[27] and would travel with the penya of Mollet del Vallès to watch matches at the Camp Nou with her father.[28][29] She would also watch Barcelona matches at a local bar, La Bolera, with her family;[29] she has said that her family have always been fanatic supporters of the club, with the exception of a cousin who supports Real Madrid.[10] In her youth, Putellas idolised male footballers Andrés Iniesta,[30] Rivaldo,[31] and Ronaldinho, who all played for Barcelona, as well as female footballer Louisa Nécib, who played for Olympique Lyonnais.[24][32] Iniesta has returned the idolatry, calling Putellas a role model and saying she encapsulates the values of FC Barcelona.[33][34]

Born into a basketball-playing family, Putellas played basketball as well as roller hockey and tennis as a child.[26] She began playing football at school,[30] and attended football camps run by Xavi for two summers,[35] before joining a club in 2001 at seven years old.[32] Her mother allowed her to join a football team on the condition she stop playing at school, though she continued. Putellas interpreted her mother's request as a reflection of machismo, specifically prejudice towards girls playing football, in society,[30] saying that her family themselves always accepted her ambitions.[10] A mature and reserved but not shy child, Putellas showed leadership qualities from a young age.[26] She enjoyed football at school, where she was embraced,[26][25] but still did not think she could have a football career due to being female.[36] Putellas' first club was the local CF Mollet UE boys' team; she only had three training sessions there, leaving as she did not like the atmosphere and soon after joining the Sabadell girls' team.[25][37]

In 2013,[38] Putellas began studying Business Administration and Management at the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona, later taking a break from her studies to focus on football.[39][40][41] She had decided to study for a degree due to a lack of professionalism in Spanish women's football;[30] Barcelona Femení became professional in 2015.[42]

Club career

Youth career

Sabadell, 2001–05

When she was seven, Putellas began playing for Sabadell, being enrolled through a family friend who played for the club;[43][38] the team would not accept players younger than eight, with Putellas' family initially lying about her age so she could join.[29] It is here she first played with future Barcelona teammates Vicky Losada and Marta Corredera.[10] Despite being several years younger than some of her Sabadell teammates, Putellas was made one of the team captains.[44] She was smaller and weaker than other players, and could not shoot from distance,[45] things which frustrated her.[37][18] Sports media wrote that Putellas found success at this age due to her ability to find "space where there is none" even as a child.[45] Sabadell was the only nearby club that had a women's section but,[44][18] though the women's team flourished during the period Putellas was with them and the staff of the girls' team pushed to develop,[44] the girls' team was not a priority. It was difficult for Putellas and her family to manage her training there as a child, but by 2004 she was playing football religiously.[18]

Barcelona, 2005–06

In 2005, Putellas spent a year in a Barcelona girls' youth team as part of La Masia.[46][13] With the team, Putellas won the youth editions of the 2005 Copa Catalunya and the league.[47] Joining Barcelona was her dream, but she had to leave when the women's system was restructured and there was no team for her age group;[13][30] Xavi Llorens, who became manager in 2006, reflected that he always expected Putellas to return, "it was just a matter of waiting for the right time". Putellas, like many of the displaced players, joined Espanyol, the other club in Barcelona.[13]

Espanyol, 2006–11

Putellas joined the Espanyol girls' team when she was twelve,[45] at a time when Espanyol was one of the dominant forces in Spanish women's football, "with an incredibly prolific academy", and Barcelona was not. Through the youth and senior teams she played alongside Marta Torrejón and Andrea Pereira, who would both also later move to Barcelona.[42] In 2007, the Espanyol Cadet team won the youth Copa Catalunya, also taking the league title in 2008 at the end of the season.[47] Putellas then began appearing for the women's Espanyol B team from the age of 14 in 2008,[48] and made her first team debut with Espanyol in 2010 when she was 16 years old.[45] She was part of the squad that won the 2010 Copa de la Reina, with Espanyol defeating Rayo Vallecano 3–1 in the final.[49] Putellas played in the 2011 Copa de la Reina for Espanyol, starting in the final that they lost 0–1 in extra time to Barcelona.[50][51] Putellas' performances with Espanyol identified her as one of Spain's best young players.[52]

Levante, 2011–12

Already a star in the fledgling women's football world in Spain after her success with the youth national team,[13][53][54] Putellas attracted attention when she moved to Valencian club Levante[13] at the age of seventeen, only a month after the 2011 Copa de la Reina final.[55] Levante did not compete in the 2012 Copa de la Reina due to failing to qualify in the previous season, but had numerous Spain football veterans and a professional environment, unusual at the time, which is said to have contributed to Putellas' individual growth. She had a personally successful 2011–12 campaign, scoring 15 goals in 34 matches (playing all matches in the season) and finishing as Levante's top scorer. At Levante, she was coached in how to play off the ball, developing technical and tactical skills like a midfielder,[13] and to become capable with both feet after the coach, Antonio Contreras, felt she was too reliant on her left.[26] He also said she was already a very classy and intelligent player when she joined.[13][26]

Barcelona

2012–13

Llorens and Barcelona had continued to follow Putellas' career after she left, and in the summer of 2012, following her breakthrough year with Levante and the death of her father, approached her to rejoin the club.[13] Barcelona had also risen to dominance in the prior season.[42] Putellas accepted the offer, signing for the club as a forward on 10 July 2012,[56][47] and started and played most of their matches that season.[57] Because of Barcelona's first-ever league title win in the previous season, they were set to make their debut in the 2012–13 UEFA Women's Champions League;[58] after signing for Barcelona, Putellas said that "it is a dream to compete in the Champions League".[59] On 26 September 2012, she started in her UEFA Women's Champions League debut against Arsenal, which they lost 0–3 at home despite starting strong.[60] In the away leg, Barcelona lost 0–4, and exited their tournament debut in the Round of 32.[61]

On 4 May 2013, Putellas won her first league title with the club when Barcelona won 2–1 against Athletic Bilbao[62] at the San Mamés to a crowd of 25,000. In 2021, Putellas said it was one of her favourite matches because it "made her feel like a footballer".[57][63] In the 2013 final of the Copa de la Reina she scored Barcelona's third goal versus Prainsa Zaragoza by dribbling past two Zaragoza defenders, past their keeper, and poking the ball into the net. The goal went viral and attracted more attention for Putellas from Spanish and international media.[note 4] Barcelona won 4–0, the first domestic double in their history.[66] Putellas was chosen as MVP of the Copa de la Reina final for her performance.[67][68]

2013–14

Putellas won her second consecutive league title with Barcelona after the team went unbeaten for 27 games.[69] She was also an integral part of Barcelona's 2014 Copa de la Reina campaign, scoring in each round of the knockout stage: her goal in the away leg of the quarterfinals against Real Sociedad saw Barcelona through with an aggregate 1–0.[70] She was one of Barcelona's three goals for a 3–1 aggregate victory in the semifinals,[71][72] but her goals were again crucial in the final against Athletic Bilbao: her shot from outside the box in extra time took the tie to penalties, in which she scored the game-winning fifth penalty, earning her fifth major trophy with Barcelona.[73] She was named MVP of the Copa de la Reina for the second season in a row.[74]

2014–15

Putellas scored her first ever Champions League goal in the Round of 32 of the 2014–15 UEFA Women's Champions League against Czech side Slavia Prague. Barcelona advanced after defeating Slavia Prague 4–0 on aggregate.[75] In the Round of 16 they lost 1–2 on aggregate to Bristol Academy.[76] Putellas won her third league title with the club when Barcelona were crowned champions in April 2015.[77]

2015–16

Putellas with Barcelona in 2016

Barcelona became a fully professional team at the start of the season,[42] with Putellas saying in early 2016 that the club had fully embraced the women's team moving to the Ciutat Esportiva, though she still felt lucky to be able to make a living from her sport.[37]

Putellas missed Barcelona's first UEFA Women's Champions League match of the 2015–16 season against BIIK Kazygurt,[78] returning in the second leg to provide an assist for Jennifer Hermoso in a 4–0 win.[79] She scored the first four-goal game of her career in 2015, having never scored a hat-trick before, in a 10–0 win against Fundación Albacete in the league.[24]

Ahead of the quarterfinals of the Champions League, which Barcelona closely lost on aggregate to Paris Saint-Germain,[80] Putellas looked to the match as an opportunity to develop; she said that her perspective had changed, that when she first joined Barcelona she felt just playing in the Champions League was a prize to enjoy, but she wanted to be able to "reach a final in three or four years" and knew they had to be challenging teams like PSG.[37]

In the quarterfinals of the 2016 Copa de la Reina, Putellas scored a brace and provided an assist for Míriam Diéguez in a 5–1 win against Real Sociedad.[81] She finished her season as Barcelona's second-highest goalscorer in the league with 18 goals.[82]

2016–17

In February 2017, Putellas was named as a candidate for the FIFPro Women's World XI for the first time, being listed as a forward.[83][84] In the 2016–2017 season, Barcelona reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Women's Champions League for the first time in the club's history. Putellas started both legs as they were knocked out 5–1 on aggregate by PSG.[85][86] On 18 June 2017, Putellas won her third Copa de la Reina with Barcelona, scoring in the final to help them to a 4–1 win over Atlético Madrid.[87]

2017–18

On 2 October 2017, Putellas wore the captain's band for the first time at Barcelona in a match against Santa Teresa, after all four of the club's captains were either benched or not selected in that matchday squad.[88] Putellas was Barcelona's sole scorer in both legs of the 2018 Copa de la Reina quarterfinal, scoring both match-winners against Levante to bring Barcelona to the semifinals.[89][90] After advancing past Athletic Bilbao in the semifinals, Barcelona made it to the final where they won 1–0 over Atlético Madrid late in extra time.

2018–19

In the 2018–2019 season, Putellas was named as Barcelona's fourth captain, the first official captaincy role of her senior career.[91] In the first match of that season's Champions League, Putellas conceded an own goal as Barcelona fell in a 3–1 shock defeat to BIIK Kazygurt.[92][93] They came back from that loss to win 3–0 at home, and ended up advancing to the semifinals for the second time in club history. In October, Putellas scored four goals (of Barcelona's nine) in a league game against Rayo Vallecano, as well as drawing a penalty for her team, leading AS to say she was already a reference in Spanish women's football.[45] Putellas started both games versus Bayern, where Barcelona won 2–0 on aggregate.[94][95] On 18 May 2019, Putellas started in Barcelona's first ever UWCL final versus Lyon, who went on to win the match 4–1.[96] Following Barcelona's loss in the final, Putellas was named to the UEFA Women's Champions League Squad of the Season for the first time in her career.[97] Not soon after, she renewed her contract with the club for 3 more seasons to 2022.[98] She ended the season as Barcelona's top scorer in the league with 16 goals and overall with 18 goals.

2019–20

In 2019, Putellas was given second captaincy for the first time at Barcelona after being named as fourth captain in the previous year.[99] For the first few months of the 2019–20 season, she captained the side during Vicky Losada's hamstring injury, but began to start as captain in most matches by default as Losada transitioned to an off-the-bench role. On 7 September 2019, she became the first player to ever score at the Estadi Johan Cruyff in a 9–1 win versus Tacón, the team that would later become Real Madrid.[100][101] Some days later, Putellas scored Barcelona's first goal of the 2019–20 Champions League campaign, away against Juventus.[102] In the home leg, she scored the first ever Champions League goal at the Estadi Johan Cruyff.[28]

In February of the following year, she started and captained both legs of the first ever Supercopa de España Femenina. In the final, she scored a brace in a 10–1 thrashing of Real Sociedad, winning her first major title with the club in two years.[103] Later in the month, she made her 300th appearance for Barcelona against Sporting Huelva, the fourth player in Barcelona's history to reach that many appearances after Melanie Serrano, Marta Unzué, and Vicky Losada. She was honored at Estadi Johan Cruyff for the milestone in March.[104][105][106] Following the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe, the 2019–20 league season was suspended, with Barcelona being crowned the winner with 21 out of 32 matchdays played. It was Putellas' first league title since 2015, and her fourth with the club overall. She ended up contributing 10 goals and 8 assists in 20 league matches.[107] At the end of the season, Putellas was named the best player of the 2019–20 league campaign.[108][109]

Upon the resumption of the 2019–20 UEFA Women's Champions League, Barcelona played Atlético Madrid in the single-legged quarterfinal, where they won 1–0. Barcelona advanced to the semifinal of the competition, where they were knocked out 1–0 by VfL Wolfsburg. In a post-match interview, when asked about the gap in quality between Barcelona and other elite European teams, Putellas claimed "there is no distance."[110][111] On the continental stage, Putellas was named as a candidate for the UEFA Women's Team of the Year for 2020.[112]

Although the 2019–20 UEFA Women's Champions League was completed, Barcelona were still due to complete the remaining matches of that season's Copa de la Reina campaign. Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, the semifinals and final of the 2019–20 Copa de la Reina were pushed back to be played during the 2020–21 season. On 13 February 2021, Putellas played the 2020 Copa de la Reina final against Logroño, and drew a penalty which she scored to put Barcelona 1–0 up. Barcelona won the final 3–0, Putellas' fifth Copa de la Reina title with the club.[113]

2020–21

As first captain Vicky Losada continued to be utilized mainly as a substitute at Barcelona, Putellas started matches as captain throughout most of the 2020–21 season. In the first match of the league season, Putellas started the first ever women's El Clásico against Real Madrid, where she scored the fourth and final goal of the match.[114] On 6 January 2021, Putellas captained Barcelona against Espanyol, the first time women's teams ever played a competitive match at the Camp Nou. Just before halftime, Putellas scored a header goal off a corner kick from Caroline Graham Hansen, becoming the first female player to score a competitive goal at the stadium.[115] The following week, she played against Atlético Madrid in the semifinal of the 2021 Supercopa de España Femenina, where she scored a free-kick in the 90th minute to tie the match and take it to extra time. Barcelona lost the match on penalties, one of their three losses that season in all competitions.[116] In the second edition of the women's El Clásico, Putellas scored Barcelona's first ever home goal against Los Blancos.[117] That goal was also her 100th goal scored in the league with Barcelona.[118]

Putellas playing against Real Sociedad in June 2021

In the 2020–21 Champions League, Barcelona advanced to their second ever final. A day prior to the Champions League final, Putellas trained separately from the group with her left thigh heavily bandaged due to strain on her hamstring, and was at risk of not starting the final with the status of "doubtful."[119][120] Putellas said that when the pain continued in training, she focused on her mentality instead, making herself believe she was not injured so that she could play on top form.[29] On 16 May 2021, despite her injury, Putellas started the second Champions League final of her career, this time against Chelsea. After going 1–0 up within 30 seconds, Barcelona were awarded a penalty after Melanie Leupolz made contact with Hermoso in the box. Putellas scored the penalty to put Barcelona 2–0 up within 13 minutes.[121] In the 20th minute of the match, Putellas sent a through ball into the box towards Aitana Bonmatí, who scored Barcelona's third. The goal was later selected as the fifth-best goal of the competition.[122] Barcelona ended the match winning 4–0, the largest margin of victory in any single-legged UWCL final, and Putellas was selected to that year's UWCL Squad of the Season.[123] Later in the year, she was listed as a nominee to the UEFA Women's Champions League Midfielder of the Season award, which she won in August.[124][125][126]

Later in the month of May, she competed in the final stages of the 2020–21 Copa de la Reina. Putellas was sidelined for the two league matches between the Champions League Final and the semifinal of the Copa de la Reina due to her previous injury, but started the semifinal against Madrid CFF where she scored two goals in a 4–0 win. Her two goals made her the first player in Barcelona's history to exceed 10 goals in the Copa de la Reina.[127] In the final, played on 30 May 2021, Putellas scored two goals against Levante – a header from a Lieke Martens corner service and another coming from a shot from open play into the far right corner.[128][129] The match ended with a 4–2 victory to Barcelona as they completed the continental treble, a first for a Spanish women's club team. Putellas also won MVP of the Copa de la Reina Final for the third time in her career, and scored the most goals in the tournament with five.[130][131] The cup was her sixth Copa de la Reina with Barcelona and her seventh overall. Putellas ended her season as the highest-scoring midfielder in Europe with 26 goals in all competitions.[132]

2021–22

Following the departure of captain Vicky Losada, Putellas overtook first-captain duties at the beginning of the 2021–22 season.[133] In August 2021, she was nominated as a UEFA Women's Player of the Year Finalist alongside Barcelona teammates Lieke Martens and Jennifer Hermoso.[134] Putellas was given the award later in the month, becoming the first Spanish woman to win it.[125][135] In September 2021, Putellas renewed her Barcelona contract for three more years until 2024.[136] On 25 September, she scored one of the fastest-ever hat-tricks in her club's, and Spanish women's football, history after she netted three goals in four minutes in her side's 8–0 defeat of Valencia, one of which was scored from 40 yards.[137][138] In the month of October, Putellas kicked off Barcelona's 2021–22 UEFA Women's Champions League campaign by scoring their second goal in a 4–1 group stage win against Arsenal. That same month, she was listed as a nominee for the 2021 Ballon d'Or Féminin, the first Ballon d'Or nomination of her career.[139][140] In November, Putellas scored 3 goals in two Champions League group stage matches against Hoffenheim.[141] She finished the 2021–22 UWCL group stage with 5 goals.

On 29 November 2021, Putellas was awarded the 2021 Ballon d'Or Féminin.[142] She became the first Spanish woman to win any World Player of the Year/Ballon d'Or award, and was the first Spaniard since Luis Suárez in 1960 to win a Ballon d'Or.[143] She dedicated the award to her father and thanked her teammates.[144] In January of the following year, Putellas was named as the winner of FIFA's The Best Women's Player Award, the second FC Barcelona Femení player to win the award after Lieke Martens in 2017.[143] Days later, Putellas scored a 91st-minute winner in a 1–0 match against Real Madrid in the semifinals of the 2021–22 Supercopa Femenina.[145] She later started and played 65 minutes of the Supercopa Femenina final, which ended 7–0 in Barcelona's favor against Atlético Madrid.[146]

Putellas began Barcelona's 2021–22 Copa de la Reina campaign by scoring a goal in a 3–1 win against Rayo Vallecano in the Round of 16 of the tournament.[147] In the quarterfinal of the tournament, played on 16 March 2022, Putellas scored 2 goals in a 3–0 win against Real Sociedad to advance Barcelona to the semifinals.[148] Later that month, Putellas competed in Barcelona's UWCL quarterfinal matches against domestic rivals Real Madrid. In the first leg, she scored 2 goals to help Barcelona to a narrow 3–1 away win.[149] In the following home leg, Putellas started and scored Barcelona's 4th goal in a 5–2 win over Real Madrid at the Camp Nou. The match broke the record for attendance at a women's football match with 91,553 fans in attendance.[150] In April 2022, Putellas started and scored two goals in a 5–1 UWCL semifinal win over VfL Wolfsburg. The match, again hosted at the Camp Nou, broke the women's football world attendance record once more with 91,648 people in attendance.[151]

On 21 May 2022, Putellas started Barcelona's second-consecutive UEFA Women's Champions League Final against Olympique Lyon. She played all 90 minutes and scored Barcelona's only goal in a 1–3 loss.[152] At the conclusion of the tournament, she was named the 2021–22 UWCL Player of the Season, included in the 2021–22 UWCL Team of the Season, and was recognized as the 2021–22 UWCL Top Scorer, scoring 11 goals throughout the competition.[153] She also had the most direct goal involvements of any player in the competition with a combined 13 goals and assists.[154]

Putellas returned to domestic competition on the 25th of May in Barcelona's semi-final Copa de la Reina clash against Real Madrid. She assisted Lieke Martens' opening goal in a match that ended as a 4–0 win.[155] In Barcelona's final match of the season, the Copa de la Reina final against Sporting Huelva, Putellas played the entire match of a 6–1 win and scored Barcelona's sixth and final goal.[156] Putellas finished as the joint-top scorer of the 2021–22 Copa de la Reina, tied with Anita Marcos and Alicia Martínez with 4 goals.

By the end of the season, Putellas' teammates agreed that "Barcelona is Alexia and Alexia is Barcelona".[157] She finished her league season with 18 goals and a league-best 15 assists as Barcelona had a perfect, wins-only season. Her 2021–22 season was also the first time in her career that she had scored over 30 goals in a single season, and the first season since 2018–19 that she was Barcelona's top scorer in all competitions.[154] Like last season, Putellas finished as Europe's highest-scoring midfielder with 34 goals in all competitions.

2022–23

On 5 July 2022, Putellas suffered an ACL injury while training with the Spain national team before the 2022 UEFA Women's Euro.[158][159] Her recovery period post-surgery was estimated to be between 10 and 12 months, meaning she would miss most (and possibly all) of the 2022–23 Primera División and 2022–23 UEFA Women's Champions League.[160] Throughout the season, she instead picked up awards for the previous year:[161] by the end of February 2023 she had retained all three of her UEFA Women's Player of the Year, Ballon d'Or Féminin and FIFA The Best Women's Player awards, creating a new record for consecutive wins.[10][19][159]

At the start of February 2023, Putellas had begun more intensive training with Barcelona again,[161][162] and at the end of March 2023 she was back in group training with the team.[163] She returned to the matchday squad on 27 April 2023, for the second leg of the UEFA Women's Champions League semi-final against Chelsea,[164] and made her first appearance on 30 April 2023, when she came on as a substitute in the 73rd minute in the league-winning victory against Sporting Huelva.[165][166] She scored her first goal after returning from injury on 21 May, in Barcelona's final league game of the season; again a substitute, she scored a minute after coming on. It was the team's only goal in a 1–2 loss to Madrid CFF, their first league loss in nearly two years.[167][168] In Barcelona's final match of the season, the 2023 UEFA Women's Champions League final against Wolfsburg in Eindhoven, Putellas entered the pitch in the 90th minute and played out the nine minutes of stoppage time in their 3–2 comeback victory.[169][170]

2023–24

Putellas returned to the forward line ahead of Barcelona's 2023–24 season, playing as a striker or false 9, something that had been discussed between her and the coaching staff to make use of her goalscoring abilities;[171] head coach Jonatan Giráldez had started thinking about using her in the more advanced role during the previous season due to the successful midfield collaboration of Bonmatí, Patricia Guijarro and Keira Walsh.[172] Putellas made her 400th official appearance for Barcelona during their first match of the season, the second player to achieve this (following Serrano).[173] Having missed a penalty against Sporting Huelva during Barcelona's second league match,[174] Putellas recorded her first goal of the season from a penalty kick in their next match.[175] She scored again in the fourth match to draw level with Hermoso as the team's record goalscorer,[172] and then netted the only goal in their next game, a victory over Atlético Madrid, to become Barcelona's all-time leading goalscorer with 182 goals (in all official appearances; it was also her 131st league goal since 2013).[176]

International career

Youth

Catalonia

Putellas was involved in the autonomous Catalan youth teams from the age of ten.[47] She played with the age group teams from under-12 to under-18,[177] and with Catalonia was champion of Spain in the youth competitions.[55] In 2007 and 2008, the Catalonia under-14 team won the championship of the autonomous communities, and in 2009 the under-16 team came second before winning the title in 2010.[47]

Spain

Putellas began playing for Spanish youth national teams at fifteen.[178][179] She took part in the UEFA U-17 Women's Championship with Spain in 2010, her first major international championship with a Spanish national team.[180] Including a goal from Putellas against Denmark,[181] Spain ended up finishing on top of the group, with three wins from three matches, and went on to sweep all their remaining matches, winning the final against Ireland on penalties.[180]

Spain's win at the 2010 UEFA U-17 Women's Championship gave them qualification for the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, played in the same year. Putellas scored in Spain's first match of the competition, as they won 4–1 against Japan. Spain finished first in the group stages, and went on to face Brazil in the quarterfinals, where Putellas assisted both of Spain's goals in a 2–1 win.[182] When Spain reached the semifinal against South Korea, Putellas assisted Amanda Sampedro's match-opening goal, but Spain eventually lost 2–1.[52] Spain won against North Korea in the third-place playoff match. Spain went on to replicate their success in 2011. In the first match of the final round, Putellas scored twice against Iceland in a 4–0 win, sending Spain to the final.[183] Spain won 1–0 against France in the final, Putellas' second UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship win.[184]

The following year, Putellas carried on experiencing success with Spain's U-19 team. She competed in the 2012 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, playing as an attacker and captaining the Spanish team. She said that she did not find captaining to weigh on her, but the opposite, that it gave her a boost in tough moments.[185] Putellas scored in Spain's second match of the group stage in a 4–0 win against England. After finishing on top of their group, Spain played in the semifinal against Portugal, where Putellas assisted Raquel Pinel's game-winning goal.[52] Spain advanced to the final, where Putellas started and captained the match but was taken off in the 83rd minute as Spain were defeated by Sweden in the second period of overtime.[186] Though the tournament took place less than a month after Putellas' father died, she has said she had no hesitation deciding to go, saying that football was both her escape and her connection to him.[25]

The 2012 UEFA Women's U-19 Championship would be Putellas' last for Spain's youth national teams. In the second round of qualifying for the 2013 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, Spain were placed in a group with Germany, the Czech Republic and Greece. She captained Spain in the group, scoring twice in three matches, but they finished third in the qualification table with one win and two losses, failing to progress.[186][187] Despite the high-ranking opposition, Putellas had gone into the group confident, comparing her side's gameplay to that of the Spain men's senior team and saying they would "defend the shirt to the death".[186] With Putellas and nearly two-thirds of the under-19 team aging out of the bracket in 2013 and 2014, and having not qualified for any major tournament for those years, it was said to be the end of an era for what was seen as a dominant period for Spain's youth women's teams.[187]

Senior

Spain

Putellas earned her first cap for the Spain senior national team in a 2–2 pre-tournament friendly draw with Denmark in Vejle in June 2013.[188] The following day, national team coach Ignacio Quereda confirmed her as a member of his 23-player squad for the 2013 European Championship finals in Sweden.[189] She and friend Virginia Torrecilla were called up as part of Quereda's plan to add the "freshness" of youth players in with senior figures.[190] Reflecting on the differences between men's and women's football in Spain shortly after being called up, Putellas said that stereotypes in society prevented the Spain women's team from seeing the same success as the men's, despite having the same technical quality.[30] In Spain's first match of the 2013 Euro, Putellas made her competitive match debut when she was subbed on against England. She scored the winner at the end of added time in Spain's 3–2 victory with a header,[note 5] her first senior international goal.[192][193] The win was Spain's first win at a Euro tournament in 16 years, their first win against England in 17 years, as well as their only win of that tournament.[40][191] Putellas was a substitute again in the team's next match against France.[53] She then started in the group match against Russia, and as Spain were eliminated by Norway in the quarter-final.[31][194]

In May 2015, Putellas was called up as part of Spain's squad at the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada, their first ever participation in a World Cup.[195][1] She started every game in the tournament, where Spain put up an uninspiring display of two losses and a draw. Her and her 22 teammates in the squad called for the resignation of long-tenured coach Ignacio Quereda, citing poor preparation for the tournament and lost confidence.[196]

Under Putellas' former coach with Spain's U-17s, Jorge Vilda, she was called up to Spain's 2017 UEFA Women's Euro squad.[197] She started in each of Spain's group stage games at the UEFA Women's Euro 2017, where they advanced to the knockouts on a head-to-head tiebreaker with a record of one win and two losses. Spain was defeated by Austria on penalties, where she was subbed in at the 68th minute.[198]

Putellas with Spain in 2018

In May 2019, Putellas was named part of Spain's squad at the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, both her and Spain's second Women's World Cup tournament.[199] She played in each of Spain's three group stage games where they advanced to the Round of 16, making it Spain's most successful run in a World Cup. Spain put up an impressive display against the United States, the eventual tournament winners. Putellas started that match, which ended up a 1–2 loss to the United States.[200]

Nine months after the World Cup, Spain competed in the 2020 SheBelieves Cup, against Japan, England, and Round of 16 World Cup opponents the United States. Putellas scored once against Japan and scored a late match-winner with a header against England.[201] Her performances earned her player of the tournament.[202][203]

In 2020, after close friend Torrecilla was diagnosed with cancer, Putellas began wearing Torrecillas's number 14 with the Spain national team. Putellas said she would not retire the number until Torrecilla returns to the national team.[204][205] In 2021, Putellas was named one of the three captains of the Spanish national team, with Irene Paredes and Jennifer Hermoso.[178]

On 26 October 2021, Putellas surpassed Torrejón's record for Spain national team appearances, picking up her 91st cap in a 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup qualifying match against Ukraine.[206][207] On 2 November 2021, she was named the Spain women's national team Player of the Year.[208]

On 1 July 2022, she became the first player to reach 100 caps with the national team, achieving this in a friendly match against Italy.[209] Days later she was included in Jorge Vilda's final list to represent Spain at the 2022 UEFA Women's Euro but,[210] on 5 July, the day before the Euro began, suffered an ACL tear in her left knee, leading her to miss the tournament.[158][160] She attended Spain's debut match at the Euro, a 4–1 victory against Finland, as a spectator in the stands before returning to Barcelona and having a knee operation on 12 July 2022.[211][212]

In September 2022, Putellas gave her public support to fifteen of her Spain teammates, known as Las 15, who refused to play for the national team until the RFEF addressed their concerns about their poor mental and physical health in the squad. On 23 September, she and the fifteen players posted a joint statement that criticized the RFEF for their response to the situation.[213][214] As the RFEF refused to acknowledge the protest, Putellas acted as a mediator between players and the federation; aiming to see the conflict resolved before the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, some improvements in condition were achieved.[215] After recovering from her ACL injury, Putellas was recalled to the squad in June 2023.[216] She scored on her return to the national team after almost a year, in a 7–0 friendly win against Panama on 29 June; the next day she was called up to the squad for the 2023 World Cup.[217]

Having not started or played a full match in over a year, Putellas was not as involved in the World Cup campaign as Spain may have hoped, still not entirely match fit. She provided an assist in the group stage game against Zambia, but more in-form players instead led the squad during the tournament. Despite her lack of minutes ahead of the later stages, sports media felt that Spain would not be able to go the distance without Putellas' influence.[218][219] In the World Cup final against England, Putellas came off the bench in the 90th minute to replace Mariona Caldentey. The match ended in a 1–0 victory for Spain to achieve their first ever major trophy.[220]

After the World Cup victory, turmoil in the squad returned due to the Rubiales affair, including the #SeAcabó movement started by Putellas;[221][222] most eligible players refused to play for the team but were called up anyway for the 2023–24 UEFA Women's Nations League in September 2023. Under legal threat if they did not attend, causing public outcry,[223][224] Putellas was part of a meeting in Oliva that saw the RFEF agree to make significant structural changes promptly.[225] Having been named Spain captain ahead of the 2022 Euro but unable to take the role due to her ACL injury, Putellas had been blacklisted from captaining Spain at the 2023 World Cup by Vilda due to her support for Las 15; following the restructuring of the RFEF, the team voted for Putellas to be captain again.[226][227] With her position as the team's unifier, leader, and spokesperson,[228][221] it was reported that some people in power at the RFEF were unhappy with the influence Putellas holds over football in Spain and that they want to try to remove her.[225]

Catalonia

In 2016, Putellas played with the Catalan senior national team in a friendly against Galicia. She said that whenever possible she would play for Catalonia, as she had good memories winning with the youth teams.[177] The Catalan team often use the same international window as the Spain team, with Putellas unable to join Catalonia to play Chile in 2019 due to being called up for Spain.[229]

Style of play

If you deny her space in one area, Putellas will find it elsewhere. Stopping the Barcelona Femení icon is certainly not impossible, but if Putellas is on form, the best way to stifle her is by saying a prayer.

– Adam Scully, Total Football Analysis, July 2022[230]

Having been a left-sided forward winger with playmaking ability in her youth career,[52][231] the predominantly left-footed Putellas is best known as a left-sided 'number 8' central or attacking midfielder for both Barcelona and Spain.[231][230][232] For Spain, she has also been played as a lone 'number 10'.[230] She has been described as the perfect "Barcelona midfielder", with the vision, passing ability, and passing accuracy that resembles her male counterparts of Barcelona's successful Guardiola era;[233][234] her technique has been compared to that of male Barcelona footballers Xavi, Sergio Busquets, and particularly Andrés Iniesta, all of whom she has said inspire her game,[13][63][31][26] as well as Real Madrid's Luka Modrić.[230][232] GOAL has described her as "technically superb", creative, and decisive.[235] Alongside her technical ability, she is hailed for her leadership capabilities[236] and overall fitness.[230]

Normally situated in the central midfield of the set-up, Putellas is one of the main contributors to Barcelona's attack, with the ability to play as an attacking midfielder and a second striker.[231] Putellas regularly finishes each season as one of Barcelona's top contributors in terms of both goals and assists. In the 2018–19 season she was the club's highest scorer in all competitions, and in the 2020–21 and 2021–22 seasons, she was Europe's highest-scoring midfielder.[237][235][232] Her statistics around attacking play reflect those of a centre forward, and she is most typically positioned in the opposition half as the furthest-forward midfielder, occupying a "half-space" between the opposition's back lines, and between their full-back and centre-back; her ability to receive with either foot helps her to keep the ball in this tight space, opening up attacking routes forward.[230] In attack, she is often the player to receive the ball from deep as the final stage of build-up play, quickly pressing or passing forward.[230][232] When the attack is less advanced, Putellas is able to move further back and become a passing option for her backlines when they are looking for options to break through and attack; when positioned further back, she does not act as a deep-lying playmaker, with her creative play instead occurring in the final third.[230]

With the ball played down the left, Putellas often provides assists, using her skills on the ball to create goal-scoring opportunities in the final third.[230] Her creative play is described by Give Me Sport as regularly "terrorising players with her fancy flicks and deft body feints".[238] The website also noted her exceptional passing ability;[238] though typically playing shorter passes, and more unsuccessful than not at playing through balls, Putellas otherwise has good statistics for pass accuracy and pass importance, and is often successful at passing into the penalty area.[230][232] Not known for her speed, her ball management skills still allow her to dribble and keep possession,[238][232] successfully dribbling an above-average amount.[230]

When the ball is played down the right, Putellas will position herself in the box, often at the back post, taking advantage of her relative height as an option to score.[230] As a midfielder, she sometimes takes shots from outside the area, though these are less accurate than her shots inside the box, of which she takes many; her ability to find space in the box poses a significant attacking threat.[230][232] When making forward runs instead of creating the attack, Putellas will come from behind her team's forward line and so is harder for the opposition defence to detect, allowing her to identify precise routes through and time her runs to receive a ball.[232] In this play, she is also difficult to conventionally mark due to roaming.[232]

When needed, she can find herself in defensive midfield and left-back positions to help Barcelona open up spaces and retain possession.[239][240] Spain presses high, with Putellas able to contribute to defensive play high up the pitch. In both teams, Putellas' defensive play is typically blocking the opposition's deepest midfielder,[230][232] winning over 60% of defensive duels, though she has a frequent tendency to foul players she tries to recover balls from.[230] She makes a significant number of loose ball recoveries in the opposition half and has a good work rate when counter-pressing.[230][232]

Putellas is sponsored by Nike. In 2019, she scored the longest-range goal at the Camp Nou (100m) in a promotional event for Nike's new PhantomVNM Boots.[241][242] Having first been in a Nike advertising campaign in 2015,[24] Putellas was the face of their promotions for FC Barcelona after reaching the 2019 UEFA Women's Champions League final.[243] For her 2021 Ballon d'Or win, Nike gifted her a custom gold crown and a pair of custom-made gold Phantom GT 2 boots.[244][245] They gave her another custom pair of the same boots after her 2022 Ballon d'Or win, branded as Phantom GT II; the "ll" digraph in her surname was stylised as "II" on the box to indicate her second win, with the heel also featuring "Alexia II".[246] Putellas has additional sponsorships with Cupra,[247] Allianz[248] and Visa, and is a member of Team VISA.[249][250] She is also an ambassador of fashion brand Mango, with the partnership focusing on promoting equality.[251]

She has been dubbed "La Reina" (The Queen) by fans, the media,[252][253][254] and by Nike, who included the nickname in a congratulatory post for her 2021 Ballon d'Or win.[255] In a 2022 docu-series about Putellas, Alexia: Labor Omnia Vincit, teammate Mapi León said that Putellas had earned such a sobriquet for her contributions to football both on and off the pitch.[256][257] However, she was first given the nickname in a tongue-in-cheek fashion at the 2021 Copa de la Reina final; neither the RFEF president, Luis Rubiales, nor sponsor Queen Letizia attended the match as planned, considered a snub towards expected winners Barcelona. When Barcelona won and Putellas was named player of the tournament, her teammates crowned her in the press conference afterwards and parodied treating her as the queen.[9][258] Putellas was awarded the 2021 Premio Reina Letizia, Spain's National Sports Award for the best overall sportswoman, which was given to her in person by Queen Letizia in 2023.[259]

Along with Lionel Messi and Johan Cruyff, Putellas is one of three footballers to be awarded the Creu de Sant Jordi, one of the highest civilian orders in Catalonia.[7][260] She also received the Gold Medal for Sporting Merit, one of the highest civilian orders in Barcelona.[6][261] In 2021, her hometown, the municipality of Mollet, announced plans to award Putellas the civic title (akin to Freedom of the City) "Per Mollet";[262][263] in 2010 and 2011 they had honoured her with the International Sports Award.[47][264]

Super Alexia, a mural depicting Putellas as Superwoman, was painted by Italian neo-pop artist TVBoy in the neighbourhood of Gràcia in 2022.[265][266] It was partially inspired by TVBoy's young daughter telling him she wanted to be a footballer like Putellas, and debuted on Father's Day in March 2022, with TVBoy saying that he hoped the mural would inspire more girls.[267] The mural of Putellas has received many visits but, despite the popularity of both Putellas and the mural in their city, has also been vandalised.[265] In January 2023 it was defaced with graffiti of lesbophobic slurs and misogynistic comments,[265][268] being restored by TVBoy again in February.[266] An image of the vandalised mural was shown at the "Jugo com una nena!" (transl. Play like a girl) exhibition at the Palau Robert in summer 2023, illustrating insults and stereotypes of female athletes.[269][270]

At the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai in 2021, an image of Putellas – named Women's Player of the Year at the ceremony – was displayed on the Burj Khalifa, the first time a woman's image has been displayed on the building.[29] Artwork depicting her (combining her head and a golden ball) was included in the 2022 "Fútbol. Arte. Iconos. En ese orden." exhibit of famous footballers at the Casa Seat in Barcelona and,[271] later that year, a wax figure of her was added to the Barcelona wax museum.[272] Both of Putellas' Ballons d'Or are on display in the FC Barcelona Museum.[273]

In 2022, Putellas was given an overall rating of 92 in the football simulation video game FIFA 23, the highest rating in the game for any player, including men.[238][274] When the franchise rebranded in 2023, releasing EA Sports FC 24 as the next installment, Putellas had the joint-highest overall rating, at 91.[275] Her player card's total statistics in FC 24 made her the highest-rated Ultimate Team player in the history of the franchise; as the first game with women's players available in Ultimate Team mode, Putellas' rating received some criticism from gamers who do not watch women's football.[276][277]

The first song on Brazilian band Skank's 2014 album Velocia is a tribute to Putellas. Titled "Alexia", it was inspired by her viral goal in the 2013 Copa de la Reina final and compares her to global icons including Messi, and Catalan icons Antoni Gaudí and Joan Miró, as well as commenting on her style of play. The band visited Putellas in Barcelona to play her the song and seek her approval before releasing it.[279][280][281] The 2023 song "Alexia Putellas" by Ochoa featuring Laüra Bonsai is also named for her,[282] as is the gymnasium at her childhood school.[26] After winning the Ballon d'Or in 2021, her hometown of Mollet announced plans to rename their football pitch after her; she turned this down, saying that she wanted the pitch to continue honouring the Gonzalvo brothers (Juli, Josep, and Marià, after whom it was originally named), fellow FC Barcelona footballers from Mollet.[283] For International Women's Day 2023, the viewpoint (mirador) overlooking historic Romanesque monuments in Sant Joan les Fonts was named for Putellas.[278] A children's book, Quin nom li posarem?, was published about the process, focusing on the importance of recognising important women.[284][285]

In 2019, Putellas spoke out against prison sentences for Catalan independence leaders in the aftermath of the 2017 Catalan independence referendum, tweeting in Catalan that the sentences were "not the solution" and calling for democratic processes to move forward.[286][287] Putellas spoke Catalan (as well as English and Spanish) in her acceptance speech for her second Ballon d'Or, drawing anger from some people in Spain.[288] In 2023, the dress she wore to this ceremony was auctioned at the People in Red gala to raise money for funding research into HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases.[289] Putellas had been part of the Madrid Pride parade for Madrid lesbian bar Fulanita de Tal in 2019.[290] For Holy Week 2022, Easter monas depicting her in some way were the most popular design of mona in Catalonia, overtaking Messi designs.[291]

Putellas is the author of a pseudo-autobiographical children's book series, Alexia Superfutbolista, with three books as of 2022.[292][293][260] She has been featured in various miniseries documenting female footballers, including the 2021 Rakuten TV Campeonas,[294] the 2022 Barça TV+ Queens of the Pitch,[295] and the third episode of UEFA's 2023 Equals.[296][297] Putellas is one of the prominent Catalan women, along with teammate Bonmatí, showcased in the SX3 series Superheroïnes.[298] There have been two series focused on Putellas exclusively, both released in 2022: TV3's La nit d'Alèxia[299][300] and Amazon Prime Video's Alexia: Labor Omnia Vincit.[301] The latter is nominated for the International Emmy Award for Best Sports Documentary, the only Spanish nominee at the 51st International Emmy Awards.[302][303]

Personal life

Putellas was close with her father. Though he was ill with heart problems during her time at Levante, he constantly travelled to Valencia to watch her play. She considered studying medicine to help him;[26] in 2012, just before the start of the 2012 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, he passed away.[304][32][305] Putellas' habitual goal celebration is to point her fingers to the sky and look up in dedication to him.[65][39][306]

She speaks Catalan as her primary language,[9] having learnt Spanish in school as a child[26] and English in the 2020s.[9] She has a pet dog, a Pomeranian called Nala,[307][308] who has an Instagram account.[309] While Putellas does not discuss her relationships, she has shared social media posts featuring partners; she was previously in a relationship with teammate Jennifer Hermoso.[310][311][312] After winning the Champions League in 2023, a video of Putellas greeting her girlfriend in the stands went viral on TikTok.[313] Putellas has a large number of tattoos,[43] including various Latin phrases (prominently Labor omnia vincit); a Hand of Fatima; an Eye of Horus; a Barcelona panot tile with "Made in" written above; a football; the number 112 (combining her first Spain shirt number, 12, with her iconic shirt number, 11); and a silhouette of her father holding her as an infant and handing her a football.[43][314][315]

  1. ↑ Per the Royal Spanish Football Federation;[1] this and her Catalan name are included in her biography on the website of Sport.[3] Putellas spells her given name with the grave accent (i.e. "Alèxia"), including when writing in Spanish,[4] though the diacritic does not appear in this language.
  2. ↑ Per the Catalan Football Federation,[5] and the councils of Barcelona[6] and Catalonia.[7] This and her Spanish name are included in her biography on the website of Sport.[3]
  3. ↑ Including by journalists for CNN,[12] The Guardian,[13] ESPN,[14] Just Women's Sports;[15] her Barcelona teammate and predecessor as The Best, Lucy Bronze;[16] and the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.[17]

  5. ↑ UEFA and FIFA credit the goal to Putellas; it is otherwise attributed as an own goal by England goalkeeper Karen Bardsley. Sources describing video review of the goal say Putellas appeared to fail to connect with Adriana Martín's left wing cross, and Bardsley's head sent the ball into the goal.[191]
