Alexia Putellas: Spain's Hope for Euro 2025 Glory

Spain's star midfielder, Alexia Putellas, is eyeing redemption as the team gears up for Euro 2025 in Switzerland. After suffering a devastating knee injury during practice just before Euro 2022, Putellas's absence impacted Spain's performance severely, resulting in an early exit in the quarterfinals.

Now in peak form, the two-time world player of the year says she has transformed into a stronger athlete, motivated to guide Spain to its first European Championship title. Her stellar comeback sees her emerge as a key player for the national squad alongside other top talents like Aitana Bonmatí.

Despite rigorous competition and previous setbacks, including narrow misses at international tournaments like the Olympics, the Spanish team is bolstered by strong performances in recent years. Putellas insists on respecting rival teams but remains confident in Spain's capabilities to clinch victory at the Euro 2025.
