15 Spanish players have resigned from the women’s national team in protest against head coach, Jorge Vilda, who they say has created a toxic culture & is affecting performance and mental health. RFEF refute claims calling situation “unprecedented in the history of football.”

Manchester United’s Ona Batlle is amongst the 15. Alexia Putellas is not despite verbally voicing her concerns earlier in the month directly to Luis Rubiales.
