Alexia is of course no stranger to individual awards. The captain won the Women’s Ballon d’Or back in November and was named The Best FIFA Women’s Player for 2021.
The 28-year-old is also one of four Barcelona players named in the Champions League Team of the Season. Alexia is joined by team-mates Aitana Bonmati, Patri, and Maria Leon.
