With 100 international caps (23 goals), she is spain’s record international and is considered the best football star in the world. Last year she won the Ballon d’Or Féminin and the trophy for The Best FIFA Women’s Player.

Putellas is considered a star player at Barcelona, the losing finalist of the past Champions League season. She was chosen as the best player of that tournament.

Last week it was announced that attacker Jennifer Hermoso is not available during the European Championship due to a knee injury.
