Lucía Corrales Álvarez (born 24 November 2005) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a winger for Women's Super League club London City Lionesses and the Spain national team.
Career
[edit]Barcelona
[edit]Corrales joined the youth academy of Spanish side Barcelona at the age of fifteen.[1]
With wing-back Fridolina Rolfö sidelined at the start of the 2023–24 season due to injury, Corrales was incorporated into the first team, playing strongly and demonstrating a playing identity on the pitch. Though playing less when Rolfö returned, Corrales' performances positioned her as "the natural replacement on the left side."[2]
London City Lionesses
[edit]On 4 September 2025, Corrales signed for Women's Super League club London City Lionesses, after triggering Barcelona's release clause of approximately £430,000.[3] The team competes in the first tier of English women's football. The Lionesses are the first fully independent team to be promoted to the top women’s league.[4][5]
International career
[edit]Corrales represented Spain internationally at the 2022 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup.[6]
Style of play
[edit]Corrales mainly operates as a winger and has been described as "one of those left-footed wingers that no longer exist. An endangered species that is difficult to find due to its versatility, being effective, disciplined and very difficult to overcome in its defensive aspect and a real dagger in attack".[7]
