Alexia Putellas to Undergo Knee Surgery

Barcelona Femení’s captain and two-time Ballon d’Or winner, Alexia Putellas, is set to undergo knee surgery. The Spain forward had to leave the national team training camp in Madrid last month due to a knee injury, which also kept her out of recent matches with Barça. The club announced that Putellas will undergo an arthroscopy on her left knee on Wednesday, December 27th.

The 29-year-old player missed the 2022 European Championship due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury but was part of Spain’s victorious World Cup squad this year. The club will provide an official medical update once the surgery is completed.

This news comes as a blow to Barcelona Femení and their fans, as Putellas has been a key player in the team’s success. Her absence from the field will undoubtedly impact the team’s performance in upcoming matches. However, her teammates and the coaching staff will need to rally together and find a way to continue performing at a high level without their star player.

In the meantime, fans and well-wishers are sending their support and positive vibes to Alexia Putellas as she prepares for her surgery. Everyone hopes for a successful procedure and a swift recovery, so she can return to the field and continue showcasing her exceptional talent and skills.
