It’s honestly wild to read some of the opinions people have about Alexia’s future. Read that again: Alexia’s future.
If she stays in Europe but joins a club that doesn’t compete directly with Barcelona, it’s a problem. If she joins a direct rival, it’s a problem. If she decides to move across the Atlantic, suddenly she’s “wasting her prime.”
For years, people have tried to control the narrative around her decisions, even after she openly admitted how exhausting it was to constantly live under those expectations.
At some point, we have to let Alexia choose what’s best for her.
As fans, our job isn’t to decide her future. It’s to respect her choice and appreciate the privilege of watching one of the greatest players of all time while we still can.
Those who truly support her will stand by her decision, wherever it takes her, and enjoy everything she still has left to give to the game. ❤️
Excl. The Guardian understands that Alexia Putellas has agreed personal terms with London City Lionesses. More online here, on this quite remarkable move. #BarclayWSL

Beth england just summed up what i've been trying to say so perfectly. Why is no one looking at the clubs behaviour through this incident. England probably wouldn't say it but katie declined chelsea multiple times and she would do it again if the club hadn't disrespected her.
The abuse she has had for apparently being disrespectful when it's the club who have had zero class. The truth will always come out. Clare Wheatley you are an utter embarrassment to Arsenal women. Katie McCabe to still come out and perform how you did those last few games 👏🏻💚
in all seriousness if she chooses to go to a mid tier team to help them grown and help others improve not to win silverware because she did all that at her childhood team and doesn’t wanna face them but wants a new legacy for a new chapter in her career that would be massive
you are so slow. she has always said that she would leave when she can no longer give her all, in her farewell msg she says she has emptied herself. she isn’t some bench player, she’s the best and that’s what is demanded of her at Barça but she can’t do it any longer.
stop talking about Kang for one fucking second, it changes nothing if goes there or not. she left us a UWCL against her main team but now you all want to act like she has to leave her home/friends to further satisfy your never ending demands from Alexia. enough.
