The Nerazzurri club has formalized the hiring of the Spanish defender, world champion in 2023 with his national team
Be the first to lift the World Cup, fulfill your lifelong dream and become an icon of your country forever. This is the story of Ivana Andrés, new defender of Inter Women. Her path was built thanks to firm roots and ambitious wings. Work, sacrifice and tenacity are the characteristics that distinguish her.
It all started in a small Spanish village in the Valencian community, Aielo de Malferit, where she was born and raised. A community of 4,000 souls where her innate leadership found fertile ground and where she started kicking her first ball. Her dream of becoming a footballer was the leitmotif of her life from the very beginning.
After playing in Aielo de Malferit’s team, in 2009, at 15 years old she becomes a footballer for Valencia. These are years of personal and professional growth, of growing ambitions and unlimited dreams. She will stay nine seasons in which she totals 247 appearances scoring seven goals. In the 2018-19 season she moves to Levante where she will play for two years before signing with Real Madrid. With the Merengues she definitively consecrates herself, becoming the captain and demonstrating all her leadership. In 4 seasons in Madrid with 137 appearances and 3 goals she becomes one of the essential pivots.
2023 is the best year of her career: the Spanish national team becomes world champion for the first time in its history and Ivana as captain raises the cup to the sky, sending all the Spanish people into ecstasy. It is an incredible achievement, which came after many years of training with the Spain shirt which she wore for the first time in 2015. A charismatic and winning footballer, Ivana Andrés is ready to bring all her experience to Inter too: her Nerazzurri adventure it has just begun.
