Marta Corredera: international footballer, mother-to-be, Spain Position: Right Back Had Corredera’s first child not been due this summer, the 30-year-old would have been part of Spain’s Euro 2022 squad.

She continues to push for better pitches and improved conditions for professional female footballers.
