Leila Ouahabi uses her tattoos to discuss her life on and off the pitch.

A key figure for Gareth Taylor’s side, the left-back has been a crucial component in City’s defensive setup across the current campaign.

Indeed, Ouahabi and co. boast the best defensive record in the entire Barclays Women’s Super League, conceding just eight times so far.

Lifting silverware would mark a significant moment in her career so far, but the Spaniard also chats about her life away from football, including the close bond she has with her sister and niece.

They’re celebrated with a beautiful design on Ouahabi’s forearm, close to a butterfly which she shares with her former Barcelona team-mate and close friend Patricia Guijarro to commemorate her UEFA Champions League triumph in 2021.

And while the defender is yet to have a tattoo in Manchester since joining the Club back in the summer of 2022, she insists that any potential league title win will form part of her latest design should Taylor’s side lift the trophy in May!

The next game in that bid is a big one - the Manchester derby at the Etihad Stadium this coming Saturday, kick-off 12:30.
