Frozen eggs: footballers play overtime for motherhood

Football has driven debates about the specific needs of women in sport. Luis Rubiales' controversial kiss to Jenni Hermoso brought the issue of sexual consent to the forefront, and now the Spanish Football Federation is finalizing an agreement with an assisted reproduction clinic to allow the national team players to freeze their eggs. This measure comes because elite athletes have their best physical performance during their most fertile years, up to age 35, so preserving their gametes increases their chances of becoming mothers when their career declines. The attention paid to women's reproductive health, offering options for greater decision-making freedom, represents a significant advance.
