Leila Ouahabi

Ouahabi was born in Mataró, Catalonia, to a family of Moroccan origin. Growing up, she would play futsal with her brother and at one point joined a futsal team of eleven other boys. The first club she joined was a girl's youth team of the club UE Vilassar de Mar. Ouahabi was thirteen when she joined Barcelona's youth teams in 2007. After five years of elevating through the ranks of La Masia, she became a first-team player for the 2011–12 season. This season saw Barcelona achieve their first ever league title win. Ouahabi was frustrated with a lack of playing time after playing a second year in the Spanish Primera División with Barcelona. Ouahabi joined Valencia in 2013, where she remained until 2016. In the summer of 2016, Ouahabi re-signed with Barcelona from Valencia. She went on to win three Primera División titles, five Copa de la Reina titles, two Supercopa de España titles and the UEFA Champions League in her second spell at Barcelona, including the continental treble of Primera División, Copa de la Reina and Champions League in 2021. Ouahabi joined Manchester City from Barcelona in 2022 on a two-year deal. She made her club debut in a UEFA Women's Champions League tie against FC Tomiris Turan on 19 August 2022, and her goal debut in the first minute of a 5-0 victory against West Ham United, on 21 April 2024. In February 2024, she signed a two-year contract extension with Manchester City, keeping her at the club until the summer of 2026. Ouahabi helped Manchester City…

Ouahabi has played for Spain's U19 national team. She earned her first senior national team callup in February 2016 under newly appointed Spain coach Jorge Vilda. A month later, Ouahabi made her senior international debut for Spain on 4 March 2016, starting a 0–0 friendly draw with Romania in Mogoșoaia. In February 2017, Ouahabi was called up to the Spain squad for the 2017 Algarve Cup, her first call-up for a senior national team tournament. Her first international goal turned out to be the winning goal in the 2017 Algarve Cup final against Canada. On 20 May 2019, Ouahabi was called up to the Spain squad for the 2019 FIFA World Cup. At the 2019 World Cup Ouahabi started one group stage match, a 0–0 draw against China. The draw was enough to get them past the group stages for the first time in Spain's history where they would then face the United States in the Round of 16. Ouahabi started that Round of 16 match, where Spain had a convincing performance but lost 1–2 against the eventual tournament winners. She ended the tournament having played 180 minutes. Ouahabi was part of the Spain squad called up for the UEFA Euro 2022. She was later one of Las 15, a group of players who made themselves unavailable for international selection in September 2022 due to their dissatisfaction with head coach Jorge Vilda, and among the dozen who were not involved 11 months later as Spain won the World Cup. On 10 June 2025, Ouahabi was called up to the Spain squad for the UEFA Euro 2025.
