Spain's Star Bonmati Suffers Fractured Leg in Training
2 Dec
Summary
- Aitana Bonmati fractured her left fibula in training on Sunday.
- The injury rules her out of the Nations League final against Germany.
- Bonmati will return to her club for the recovery period.
Aitana Bonmati, a celebrated three-time Ballon d'Or winner, has sustained a fractured left fibula. The injury occurred during a training session with Spain's national team on Sunday, November 30, 2025, following an accidental collision. This setback is significant as it rules her out of the crucial Women's Nations League final match against Germany, scheduled for Tuesday, December 2, 2025.
Bonmati's club, Barcelona, will now oversee her recovery period. The Spanish soccer federation confirmed the diagnosis and stated that the midfielder would return to her club to begin rehabilitation. This absence is a major blow for Spain, which has consistently reached the finals of major tournaments, including the 2023 Women's World Cup and the 2024 Women's Nations League.
The team's recent history includes victories against England and France, and a narrow defeat to England on penalties in the Euros 2025 final. Bonmati's injury means Spain will have to contest the Nations League final without one of its most influential players, impacting their quest to add another trophy to their impressive collection.
