With the Women's Nations League underway in February, La Roja will be hoping to win all major trophies in the French capital.

Here are five key players to watch.

Aitana Bommati

Aitana Bommati has contributed greatly to FC Barcelona's rise to the international stage and has enjoyed success at various levels with the Spanish national team.

She is now aiming to win gold at the Paris Olympics, the only major title that has eluded her in the past year.

In the last 12 months, the Barcelona superstar has won the World Cup and UEFA Nations League with his country, as well as La Liga and the Champions League with his club.

Additionally, she won the Ballon d'Or and was named Champions League Player of the Season.

That's a pretty impressive trophy cabinet for a Ballon d'Or winner.

Laia Aleisandri

The Manchester City midfielder's outstanding performances and versatility have made him an invaluable addition to the national team.

Since making his debut against Cameroon on 17 May 2019, the Catalan has grown in importance and has become the player most frequently called up since Montse Tomé took over as national team coach.

One of her many strengths is her versatility.

The number 14 has played in three different positions for both her national team and club, demonstrating her adaptability and performance at the highest level in all four positions at the back as well as in deep-lying midfield.

Patri Guiharo

Look who's back, he's back again!

After 723 days, Guijarro returned to the Spain national team after the dispute that had caused his temporary absence was resolved.

Patri's return to the national team is not only one of the biggest news stories of the year, but also a major boost for the team tactically.

It hasn't been an easy road, but now she has the Olympics ahead of her, one of only a few major tournaments to achieve and continue to prove why she is one of the best athletes in the world.

Teresa Abeleira

The 23-year-old's passing precision and positional maturity have laid the foundations for La Roja to win a string of international titles.

Now, all eyes are on winning their first Olympic gold medal.

When the “Last 15” withdrew from the national team, Real Madrid players were not included due to pressure not to intervene in the club's internal disputes.

The club's decision presented Abeleira with a golden opportunity to step out of the shadows.

She has established herself as a force within the team and has emerged as one of the best players at her position, which is a testament to her talent and dedication.

Salma Parraluelo

Every athlete dreams of becoming an Olympian, right?

Salma was no exception.

However, her original dream was to pursue athletics.

She began her sporting journey in athletics where she quickly excelled and set numerous records in various events in the under-16 and under-18 categories.

For many years, she juggled the 400m hurdles, soccer and school, and finally in 2022, when she had to choose, she chose soccer.

Now, she's trying to make her Olympic dreams a reality – but in soccer!
