Women's soccer star Alexia Putellas leaves Barcelona after 14 seasons
Speculation swirls around the next move of Alexia Putellas after she captained Barcelona to the Women’s Champions League title in Oslo.
An intriguing scene played out as the Spanish great went to collect the silver trophy.
Putellas’ walk along the receiving line toward the trophy passed by OL Lyonnes owner Michele Kang.
Reports in England and Spain suggest Kang could soon be the Spain star’s next employer.
Kang’s other club in Europe, the fast-emerging London City Lionesses, is in the market to make a statement signing.
Putellas is out of contract next month after 14 years at Barcelona.
