The captain of FC Barcelona and the Spanish team thanked all the messages received

“I have never been more than five days without touching a ball, training or competing”

Alexia Putellas published a message of thanks on her social networks after learning that she suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee that will keep her off the pitch for at least ten months.

I don’t know how to start writing these lines. I look at the photo and see how quickly everything can change in a support or a second, but the first thing that this situation has confirmed for me is the real and pure love I feel for this sport. I could blame him for why now, why one day before the start of the European Championship that I’ve been looking forward to and working for so long, but I don’t. I feel like I’ve been privileged for a long time. I am only grateful for all that daily happiness that is so difficult for anyone to achieve. I realized it a long time ago and I can say that I enjoyed it all the way to this day.

Now a new stage begins. Since I can remember, I have never been more than 5 days without touching a ball, training or competing. It was and is my passion and this process will be quite a challenge but I am confident that I will recover, get back on track and finish what I started.

Without a doubt, I will be one more fan for a while and I will live, shout and vibrate every moment from the stands.

Companions, I am with you and with full confidence. I know what you are capable of doing every day and how powerful you are. Believe it already for it ?

I absolutely appreciate all the messages and details I have received. Thank you very much from the heart.

See you soon.

A hug,

Alexia ⚽❤️‍?
