Barcelona have claimed a third Ballon d’Or Fémenin after Aitana Bonmatí was crowned the 2023 winner.
The midfielder succeeded her club and Spain teammate Alexia Putellas, who held the award for the past two years, on Monday evening.
Bonmatí proved integral as Barça secured a treble, winning Liga F for a fourth consecutive season before edging out Wolfsburg to lift their second UEFA Women’s Champions League.
She also performed a starring role for Spain during their triumphant Women’s World Cup campaign and was later crowned the tournament’s Golden Ball winner.
Bonmatí joins Putellas (2021, 2022), Norway’s Ada Hegerberg (2018) and the USA’s Megan Rapinoe (2019) in winning the award.
