An attacking full-back, Batlle helped Stoney’s side to notch some notable results against the WSL’s three most successful sides, including a 1-1 draw with eventual champions Chelsea on her debut, back-to-back draws with Manchester City in November and, in that same month, a 1-0 win over Arsenal.
After that victory, the Spain international declared herself
“proud of the character and ambition of my team and this great club. It is my desire to continue working with them.”
