The Spanish Football Federation announced this week that it will finance the freezing of eggs for players and referees. This measure aims to support women in football who wish to postpone motherhood in order to continue their sports careers.
The initiative was received with applause by the majority, who consider the funding an important step towards equality in sport. However, the measure has also generated doubts and criticism from some elite athletes.
This decision comes in a context of growing concern about the discrimination of women in professional sport, particularly regarding reproductive choices that frequently affect women's careers.
