When playing in Spain, Hermoso has won five league titles, finished as top scorer four times, is a four-time Copa de la Reina champion and also won the 2020 Supercopa Femenina. Talk about a resume.

So far in the 2020-21 season, she has bagged a staggering 15 goals and seven assists in 15 matches to help Barça hold a seven-point lead and a +84 goal difference.

Here recent efforts have seen her score a hat-trick in her side’s UEFA Women’s Champions League victory over Fortuna Hjørring.

In an interview with BarçaTV in June last year, Hermoso expressed her wish to win more with the Spanish giants to proves her desire to squeeze every last drop out of her career.

“I hope I sill have a lot of football in me. I don’t know what the future holds for me, but I want to keep growing,” she said. “I want to help Barça win every possible title.”


Her success on the pitch isn’t only at the club level.

Since her debut in June 2012, Hermoso has developed into one of Spain’s best attackers, playing with the same amount of weight on her back, this time in the form of the No10.

In the recent Euro 2022 qualifiers, she scored a thumping five goals against Azerbaijan and is now Spain’s highest goalscorer with 42 goals in 82 official matches.

“Jenni is one of the most talented players I have played with,” said Veronica Boquete afterwards. “She is a scorer … the numbers speak for themselves.”

“She has always been a player who has stood out, who has left everyone who has seen her play with their mouths open,” added Adriana Martín.

“If someone had to make history by being the top scorer of the national team, it had to be her.”


With a long list of accolades and her quality still on an upward trajectory, it’s easy to see how Hermoso continues to be a key figure in women’s football.

By achieving new records and pushing herself and her team towards more victories, additional success is surely in sight.

At 30-years-old, one can only hope Hermoso’s magic will continue for years to come.
