Michael Cox, Laia Cervello Herrero and Sophie Penney bring you the inside story of Ballon d’Or winner Aitana Bonmati, from growing up in Catalonia to winning the World Cup and Champions League trophies and player of the tournament awards in the same year.

What’s Bonmati like as a person? What made her so good this year? And will she still lead Barcelona and Spain now that two-time Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas is back?

Plus Raphael Honigstein joins us to explain why Germany’s manager has been absent since their World Cup disaster, and what dentistry has to do with all of this.

Produced by Sophie Penney
