Now, the captain could return to the team to face Chelsea this Thursday, in the second leg of the semifinals of the Women’s Champions League, despite the fact that her coach, Jonatan Giráldez, assured in the preview that he would not risk the least with her. .

The truth is that, with the medical discharge, Alexia will return to the team for the final stretch of this season, with that ‘Champions’ at stake and with the F League on the verge of candy for the Blaugrana team, which recovers its captain and the Considered the best player of the moment.
