The blue ones come from leaving the Ajax Netherlands, a key that won 4-1. One of the English goals was the work of the Colombian who, after excelling with Levante in Spain, continued her good streak with Chelsea.
Emma Hayes Chelsea coach, highlighted the contribution and adaptation of the girl born in Sibaté, Cundinamarca, who earned a place in the starting lineup.
Hayes has had words of praise for Mayra, who highlights her power, discipline and scoring ability. “Mayra Ramírez was immense. She showed her qualities, she held the ball well, she led the line and scored a fantastic goal,” said the strategist after the 0-4 victory over Leicester City.
Jean Albert Martínez, owner and trainer of Real Pasión de Funza club, where Ramírez trained, is sure that the Colombian will make history in the English club. He describes her as a powerful forward, who knows how to take advantage of the advantages that her height gives her (she is 1.78 meters tall). She “can withstand strong rivals, she doesn’t ‘soften’ easily, she is fast and all that physical potential of hers, together with the technical work that she received from her, made her become a complete player.”
