Alexia Putellas has announced her departure from Barcelona after 14 illustrious years, during which she amassed 38 trophies and scored a record 232 goals for the women's team. The two-time Ballon d'Or winner recently secured her fourth Champions League title with Barcelona, defeating Lyon on Saturday.
Final Appearance and Legacy
The 32-year-old Spain international is scheduled to make her 508th and final appearance for the club against Real Sociedad on Wednesday. Putellas leaves as one of the most decorated players in women's football history, having been instrumental in Barcelona's dominance both domestically and in Europe.
Potential WSL Move
Putellas is strongly linked with a move to Women's Super League side London City Lionesses, having been seen visiting the club's stadium earlier this season. This potential transfer would represent the biggest in WSL history, highlighting the ambition of London City Lionesses' owner, Michele Kang. The move would mark a significant shift in the landscape of women's football, bringing a player of Putellas' calibre to the English top flight.
