Alexia Putellas Segura (born 4 February 1994) is a Catalan professional footballer. She plays as a midfielder for Barcelona, whom she captains, and for the Spain women's national football team.[3] Before this, she played for Espanyol and Levante, and she has represented Catalonia. By 2022, she had won all the major awards available to a European player, both individually and with her club. People widely consider her the best female footballer in the world right now and one of the greatest of all time. In 2022, a football reporter named Asif Burhan mentioned how her dedication to the sport has changed women's football.[4] She has been playing for Barcelona since 2012, after spending most of her younger years with Espanyol. With Barcelona, she has achieved a lot: seven league titles, seven Copas de la Reina, and two UEFA Women's Champions League trophies. In the 2020-21 season, she played a key role in helping Barcelona win the Champions League and two other major titles for the first time in their history. In recognition of her outstanding performance, she won several awards in 2021, including UEFA Women's Player of the Year, Ballon d'Or Féminin, and The Best FIFA Women's Player - a feat that no one had accomplished before in a single year.[5]

As of 2022, she's the second player with the most appearances for Barcelona, just behind Melanie Serrano. She's also the second-highest all-time scorer for the club, after Jennifer Hermoso.[6] Moreover, she holds the record for the most appearances for Spain with 104 caps, surpassing Marta Torrejón's previous record of 90 caps in 2021.[7]

Personal life

Putellas was really close to her dad. Even though he was sick with heart problems when she played for Levante, he always came to see her games in Valencia. She thought about studying medicine to help him.[8] He died in 2012, just before an important tournament.[9]

When she scores a goal, she points to the sky to remember him. She mostly speaks Catalan, learned Spanish in school when she was young, and started learning English in the 2020s.[10] She has a pet dog named Nala, a Pomeranian,[11] who even has an Instagram account.[12]

She doesn't talk much about her relationships, but she did share on social media about being with her teammate Jennifer Hermoso. They even joined an event called Madrid Pride together. After winning the Champions League in 2023, a video of Putellas meeting her girlfriend in the stands became super popular on TikTok.[13]

Putellas has lots of tattoos. Some have Latin sayings, like "Work conquers all."[14] She also has symbols like a Hand of Fatima and an Eye of Horus, plus a Barcelona tile with "Made in" written on it. She's got a football, the number 112 (combining her first Spain shirt number, 12, and her famous shirt number, 11), and a drawing of her dad holding her as a baby and giving her a football.[15]
