UPCOMING TRANSFER
She has agreed to join Romanian club Rapid Bucuresti for the 2021/22 Liga Nationala season. (lavozdegalicia.es, 15 Apr 2021)

CLUB JOURNEY
She played club handball in Spain for Sagunto, Porrino, Valladolid and Bera Bera before relocating to Romania in 2017 to join SCM Ramnicu Valcea. "At an economic level, the Romanian League is well above the Spanish one, but that is not the most important thing for me. The Romanian is one of the most powerful leagues in Europe, with many competitive teams and that allows me to play in the Champions League almost every year. Although I would like to return [to Spain], I see it as complicated." (dxtcampeon.com, 16 Apr 2021; marca.com, 14 Apr 2021)
