The former Barcelona captain is back at the summit of the women&#8217;s game after a season packed with goals, assists and silverware.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:start\">Putellas tore her cruciate ligament in 2022 and fought hard to get back on the pitch. She has since rediscovered her world-class best. Last season she scored 24 goals and set up 13 more for Barcelona across all competitions, including seven goals and seven assists in the Champions League alone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:start\">UEFA named her the competition&#8217;s best player this season too, shortly before she announced her exit from the Catalan club after 14 trophy-laden years to join London City Lionesses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:start\">This crowning adds another individual honour to a glittering career. Putellas won the Women&#8217;s Ballon d&#8217;Or in 2021 and 2022, cementing her place among the greatest players in the history of women&#8217;s football.<\/p>\n<p>Read also: Will Flick pay the price?
