1. Early Life and Personal Background
Aitana Bonmatí's early life was shaped by her family's strong commitment to Catalan culture and political activism, which influenced her unique naming convention and instilled in her a competitive spirit and a dedication to both academic and personal well-being.
1.1. Early Life and Family
Aitana Bonmatí was born on 18 January 1998, in Vilanova i la Geltrú, the capital of the Garraf comarca of Catalonia, Spain. She was raised in Sant Pere de Ribes in Garraf. Her parents are Vicent Conca i Ferrús and Rosa Bonmatí Guidonet, both teachers of Catalan language and literature. They fostered a love of reading in her from an early age.
1.2. Naming Convention and Family Politics
Bonmatí's full name in Catalan is Aitana Bonmatí i Conca. Her parents were actively involved in a movement to change Spanish naming customs, which traditionally place the paternal surname first. When Bonmatí was born, this change was not yet legal, so for the first two years of her life, she was known as Aitana Bonmatí Guidonet, with both surnames coming from her mother. Her parents campaigned and took their case to parliament to change the legislation, seeking advice from figures like Imma Mayol and legal experts. In May 1999, her mother, Rosa Bonmatí, appeared on Bon dia, Catalunya to advocate for the change. The law was changed in late 1999 and ratified in early 2000, making Bonmatí one of the first people in Spain to have her maternal surname (Bonmatí) as her first surname, followed by her paternal surname (Conca). In 2023, Bonmatí publicly honored her parents, stating, "You fought for change and you succeeded, I carry that fight and resilience in my blood."
Her father, originally from the Valencian Community, was part of the Catalan Countries independence party, Movement for Defence of the Land. He was also reportedly a member of the Catalan nationalist paramilitary group Terra Lliure. In 1992, he was among those arrested and, by their accounts, subjected to torture as part of Operation Garzón, a controversial police operation ahead of the 1992 Summer Olympics. Although acquitted in the subsequent trial, Conca was part of a landmark case that led to the Spanish state being convicted in the European Court of Human Rights for violating the Convention Against Torture. Due to her family's outspoken Marxist and Catalan independentist views, Bonmatí has faced criticism from various political alignments, including right-wing Spanish nationalists and even socialist separatists.
1.3. Education and Personal Habits
Bonmatí initially played basketball in her childhood but discovered her preference for football at the age of seven while playing on the school playground. Her father observed her competitive and self-critical nature from a young age, expressing concern that her intense focus on achievement might diminish her enjoyment of the game. Bonmatí herself acknowledged in 2023 that she is "never happy with what I do because I always want more." She has been a lifelong fan of FC Barcelona, often watching the men's games at a local bar in Ribes during her childhood.
After playing in local boys' teams, Bonmatí joined Barcelona's youth section at the age of 13 to play in their girls' teams. At the time, the girls' youth section lacked an on-site residential facility, requiring her to travel two hours daily on public transport, often accompanied by her father, as he does not drive and her mother has fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. Her childhood idols were Barcelona midfielders Xavi and Andrés Iniesta. By 2023, she had developed a close friendship with Xavi, who expressed pride in her having inherited the "Barça DNA."
Bonmatí maintains a flexitarian plant-based diet and places significant emphasis on adequate rest. Since the age of 13, she has regularly consulted a psychologist to "be good with [herself]" and advocates for prioritizing mental health. She also finds travel to be a means of disconnecting, citing a trip to Vietnam as particularly impactful. Academically, she studied physical activity and sports science at Ramon Llull University, graduating in 2021. In September 2022, she began a master's degree in sport management at the Johan Cruyff Institute.
Bonmatí's native language is Catalan, and she is also fluent in Spanish and English. In 2023, she collaborated with Plataforma per la Llengua to advocate for the European Union (EU) to grant Catalan official status within the EU, appealing to Petteri Orpo, the Prime Minister of Finland, to support the initiative. Bonmatí is also involved in activism supporting the UN Refugee Agency.
2. Club Career
Aitana Bonmatí's club career began in local youth teams before she joined FC Barcelona's prestigious La Masia academy, where she developed into a pivotal player, leading the senior team to numerous domestic and European triumphs.
2.1. Youth Career
Bonmatí's early football development took place at local clubs, where her competitive nature and technical skills quickly became apparent, setting the stage for her move to Barcelona's youth academy.
2.1.1. Ribes and Cubelles, 2005-12
Bonmatí joined her local team, CD Ribes, at the age of seven, playing there for four years and showing significant improvement. Within the club, she was the only girl among approximately 400 boys. She initially played as a defender, demonstrating physicality and fearlessness in tackling, along with an "ability to steal the ball and initiate attacks [that] showcased her strength on the pitch." Her first coach compared her to legendary Barcelona centre-back Carles Puyol but eventually moved her into midfield to allow her more influence on attacking play.
She then transferred to CF Cubelles, playing there for two years, drawn to their style of play that emphasized ball control and good touches, which she enjoyed. As the only girl in her youth teams, she faced teasing from boys due to her short stature. However, she appreciated playing in boys' teams, believing it helped improve her strength and intensity.
2.1.2. Barcelona, 2012-16
Bonmatí joined Barcelona's youth section as a teenager, starting in their Juvenil-Cadet ranks, which was then the second-highest girls' development team. In 2013, with Juvenil-Cadet, Bonmatí won both the respective league and Copa Catalunya competitions. The following season, she again won the league with Juvenil-Cadet, with the team remaining undefeated. They lost the Copa Catalunya final on penalties, despite Bonmatí converting her penalty in their 2-4 shootout loss to Sant Gabriel. Despite her success, Bonmatí occasionally "wondered if it was worth all the effort," given the exhausting travel and mental toll.
Initially, she did not aspire to play professional football due to a lack of professional examples, even at Barcelona. While in the youth sections, Bonmatí learned about the professionalization of women's football in the United States and considered moving there to pursue a career, intending to join the University of Oregon program. However, in 2015, Barcelona professionalized its women's team, which prompted Bonmatí to decide to stay.
After two years at the club, Bonmatí moved up to become a Barcelona B player. During her time with the B team, she made occasional appearances for the first team in preseason. Throughout the 2015-16 season, Bonmatí played a crucial role in winning the championship of Segunda Division, Group III for the first time in the club's history, scoring 14 goals. At the end of the season, she was promoted to the first team by manager Xavi Llorens.
2.2. FC Barcelona
Bonmatí's journey through Barcelona's senior team saw her evolve from a promising substitute to an indispensable midfield maestro, accumulating an impressive collection of trophies and individual accolades.
2.2.1. 2015-16
Bonmatí made her competitive first-team debut at the end of the 2015-16 season during the quarter-finals of the 2016 Copa de la Reina against Real Sociedad. Playing as a false 9, she provided an assist to Bárbara Latorre. She continued to feature in the tournament as a substitute, coming on late in a 3-0 semi-final win against Levante. Bonmatí also appeared in the final against Atletico Madrid, substituting for Gemma Gili in a match that ended in a 2-3 loss for Barcelona.
2.2.2. 2016-17
At the start of the 2016-17 season, she played in both matches of the Copa Catalunya, scoring in both. The final against Espanyol concluded with a 6-0 victory, marking Bonmatí's first senior title with the club. She made her UEFA Women's Champions League debut in the Round of 32 against FK Minsk. Bonmatí was used sparingly in her first season with the senior team, making 13 league appearances with three starts and scoring two goals, both in a brace against Oiartzun. She scored Barcelona's fourth goal in the final of the 2017 Copa de la Reina, a 4-1 win over Atlético Madrid.
2.2.3. 2017-18
In the 2017-18 season, Bonmatí continued to make limited appearances, primarily in the league. Her sole goal of the season was also her first ever Champions League goal, scored in a Round of 16 match against Lithuanian club Gintra Universitetas. She came on for Toni Duggan in the 2018 Copa de la Reina final, which went into extra time and resulted in a Barcelona win, securing her second major title with the club.
2.2.4. 2018-19
The 2018-19 season proved to be a break-out year for Bonmatí, as she consistently featured in the first team in Spain. She also made regular Champions League appearances, scoring once against Glasgow City in the Round of 16. Barcelona reached their first ever Champions League final, where Bonmatí started the match. Despite a 4-1 loss to Lyon, she had a memorable moment that went viral when she outran Shanice van de Sanden down the right-wing to prevent a counter-attack. Bonmatí concluded her season with 12 league goals and played all but five matches across all competitions.
2.2.5. 2019-20
Despite an approach from Bayern Munich, Bonmatí signed a new contract with Barcelona in the summer of 2019, extending her stay at the club until 2022. For her performances with Barcelona and Spain in the previous season, she was honored as the Catalan Women's Player of the Year, receiving 68% of the vote.
In 2020, she made her 100th appearance for Barcelona, coming on as a substitute against Tacón. Following a brief injury, she was substituted on in both matches of the Supercopa de España, including the final, where Barcelona secured a dominant 10-1 victory over Real Sociedad. Months later, after the RFEF suspended the 2019-20 league season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Barcelona was awarded the title, marking Bonmatí's first league title with the club as a senior player.
2.2.6. 2020-21
In the middle of the 2020-21 season, Bonmatí participated in the final of the 2019-20 Copa de la Reina against Logroño, which had been postponed by a year due to COVID-19 concerns. She scored Barcelona's second goal of the final with a shot just inside the area and was named the Copa de la Reina Final MVP for her outstanding performance.
In the semi-finals of that season's Champions League, Bonmatí provided an assist to Jenni Hermoso that helped Barcelona secure a 1-1 draw in the first leg against Paris Saint-Germain. Barcelona won the second leg against PSG 2-1, with Bonmatí starting and being substituted in the 79th minute for Asisat Oshoala. On 16 May 2021, she started her second Champions League final, this time against Chelsea. She scored Barcelona's third goal in the 21st minute by dribbling past Jess Carter after receiving a pass from Alexia Putellas. Barcelona ultimately won the match 4-0, and Bonmatí's performance earned her the Champions League final MVP award. Her goal was also voted the 5th-best of the tournament, and she was included in the UWCL Squad of the Season for the first time. Later that year, Bonmatí was nominated for the UEFA Women's Champions League Midfielder of the Season award.
Following the season, Bonmatí was in high demand and received transfer offers from teams in England, France, and Germany. In June 2021, Lyon reportedly offered to quadruple Bonmatí's salary and pay Barcelona a 500.00 K EUR transfer fee - double the world record at the time. Despite Barcelona facing economic uncertainty, neither the club nor Bonmatí wished for her to move.
2.2.7. 2021-22
On 29 September 2021, Bonmatí scored her first goal of the 2021-22 season, contributing the fourth goal in Barcelona's 8-0 league victory against Villarreal. On 17 October, she scored a brace against Sporting Huelva in a 5-0 win. She scored her first UWCL goal of the season against 1899 Hoffenheim in a 5-0 victory. On 31 December, Bonmatí renewed her contract with Barcelona until June 2025.
On 8 January 2022, she sustained a right leg injury in the 30th minute of a match against Granadilla Tenerife, sidelining her for approximately a month. On 23 January, Barcelona won the Supercopa de España while she was injured. On 6 February, she marked her return from injury by scoring the final goal in a 7-0 thrashing of Eibar. On 30 March, she scored the second equalizing goal in a 5-2 (8-3 aggregate) win against Real Madrid in the second leg of the UWCL quarter-final, played at Camp Nou before a crowd of 91,553 spectators. A few weeks later, on 22 April, at the same stadium, in front of a record 91,648 spectators, she opened the scoring for Barcelona in the third minute of a 5-1 victory against Wolfsburg in the UWCL semi-final first leg. On 8 May, she scored a hat-trick in a 6-1 win over Rayo Vallecano. A week later, she scored the second goal in a 2-1 win over Atlético Madrid in the final league match of the season, before being sent off in the closing minutes, as her team won the league with a perfect record. On 21 May, she started in the UWCL final as Barcelona lost 1-3 to Lyon. On 25 May, she scored the second goal in a 4-0 victory over Real Madrid in the Copa de la Reina. Four days later, she played in the Copa de la Reina final as Barcelona won 6-1 against Sporting Huelva to secure the title.
2.2.8. 2022-23
Ahead of the 2022-23 season, teammate Alexia Putellas ruptured her ACL, leading to Bonmatí taking over Putellas' attacking midfield position for Barcelona. In this role, Bonmatí had what Nike summarized as "The best season. Of any footballer. Ever." She won every tournament her teams competed in, including the league, Supercopa, Champions League, and World Cup. She was named the player of the tournament in the Supercopa, Champions League, and World Cup, and was recognized with the UEFA Women's Player of the Year Award and the Ballon d'Or Féminin for the season. No player, male or female, had achieved a more decorated season before.
2.2.9. 2023-24
Bonmatí retained the attacking midfield role in the 2023-24 season, with captain Alexia Putellas returning but playing more as a striker to best utilize the strengths of the entire team.
On 4 May 2024, Bonmatí played the entire match as Barcelona defeated Granada 4-1 to secure their fifth consecutive league title. On 18 May, Barcelona won the Copa de la Reina with an 8-0 victory over Real Sociedad. On 25 May, Bonmatí opened the scoring for Barcelona in a 2-0 victory over Lyon in the Champions League final, securing her and Barcelona's third (and second consecutive) Champions League title. In doing so, Barcelona achieved their second continental treble and first continental quadruple. Bonmatí was named MVP of both the final and the tournament as a whole, contributing six goals and six assists to be the top goal contributor. Excelling in other competitions, she received a perfect 10 rating for the season from Sport, which suggested she was a strong favorite for further individual titles.

After winning her first Catalan Player of the Year award, Jordi Ventura, the coach who signed her to Barcelona's Cadet team, emphasized that she is "an intense player, very competitive and perfectly dominates with both legs." In the same article, former FCB Femení coach Xavi Llorens described Bonmatí as possessing "innate elegance in driving the ball" and being "very competitive... versatile, can play in three, four or five positions and does not lower her level."
Ahead of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, FIFA's player profile described her as "technically gifted" with "superb vision with plenty of character" and being "combative when required with an eye for goal." Bonmatí views her short stature as an advantage, attributing it to her low center of gravity, which makes it difficult for opponents to dispossess her.
