My Take
To me, Alexia Putellas represents a turning point for women's football, not just an individual peak. Captaining her hometown Barcelona and winning back-to-back Ballon d'Or Féminin titles in 2021 and 2022 already puts her in rarefied company, but what moves me is her resilience: returning from a serious injury and remaining the standard everyone measures against. Her Pompeu Fabra education seems to echo in the speed of her decision-making on the pitch. She carries Catalan pride while dragging the entire profile of the women's game upward, and I have a soft spot for players who advance their whole sport.
