¡SU MAJESTAD LA REINA ALEXIA PUTELLAS!
I’m beyond proud of Alexia and everything she has done for this club. I knew this day would come eventually, but somehow it still feels impossible. Because some players leave teams… and some become part of what the team means. You were never just another name on the shirt. For so many of us, you became Barça itself.
Thank you for every title, every comeback, every impossible night that ended with you carrying us forward. Thank you for proving that leadership is not always loud, that strength can survive injuries, pressure, criticism, and still come back stronger. Thank you for staying when things weren’t easy and for loving this badge in a way that made all of us love it even more.
I keep thinking about the 12-year-old girl I was, watching matches through doubtful links, trying not to miss a minute, admiring you without knowing how much you would end up meaning years later. And now I’m here, a grown woman, writing goodbye to a player who unknowingly accompanied part of my life.
You made little girls believe they belonged in football. You made many of us dream bigger. You made excellence look normal. And even when football moves on, some stories don’t. Yours with Barça never really ends because people like you leave something behind that trophies cannot measure.
No matter how far away you go, this will always be your home. This club will always carry pieces of you. And for many of us, there will always be a before and after Alexia.
Thank you for every sacrifice nobody saw. Thank you for choosing Barça again and again. Thank you for teaching resilience. Thank you for the memories. Thank you for growing with us.
Most of all, thank you for making an entire generation proud.
You’ll wear another shirt maybe, play in another stadium, hear another anthem… but a part of you will always belong here.
Forever our captain.
Forever one of us.
Thank you, Alexia. 💙❤️
