FC BARCELONA WOMEN
Alexia Putellas overtakes Luis Suárez in the FC Barcelona top scorers chart
Alexia Putellas has overtaken Luis Suárez and is now the third top scorer in the history of Barça behind only Messi and César
Saturday night, November 16, was a real party at the Alfredo Di Stéfano Stadium in Valdebebas. FC Barcelona women's team added a new victory in the Clasicos against Real Madrid (0-4), the seventeenth in the same number of games played, and Alexia Putellas achieved a new milestone in her career.
In the 86th minute, 'Kika' Nazareth assisted Alexia Putellas, who received the Portuguese player's filtered pass from the left and ended up showering Misa with a spectacular goal and continuing to enlarge her legend as a culé. And with her goal against Real Madrid, the midfielder reached 199 wearing the Barça shirt, entering the mixed podium of top scorers in the history of the club.
Leo Messi, César and Alexia Putellas
Her 199 goals surpass the mark achieved by Luis Suárez during his time at FC Barcelona, and only César Rodríguez, who scored 232 goals between 1938 and 1955, and the unbeatable Leo Messi, absolute king who scored 672 goals in official matches during the seventeen years he defended the Barcelona shirt, remain ahead of her.
With a contract until 2026, everything indicates that sooner rather than later Alexia Putellas will surpass César and will only be behind the Argentine star in the historical ranking of top scorers.
