Núria Llansà Fernández (3 November 1937 – 26 June 2019) was a Spanish association football player, coach, and women's football executive best known for her association with FC Barcelona Femení, where she worked for 32 years.
Early life
Núria Llansà Fernández was born in Barcelona on 3 November 1937.[1][2]
Playing career
Llansà joined the Barcelona women's team in 1970, ahead of their first match. Initially she signed up with the pseudonym Llera, to hide that she played football from her employers. She played for the team as both a right-back and goalkeeper in the first game; she would play in both roles throughout her time at the club.[1][3] Outside of football, she worked as a laboratory manager.[2]
In February 1971, Llansà was part of the unofficial Spain team who played the nation's first international match against Portugal.[4]
She played for Barcelona until 1974, when she moved to Espanyol.[5]
Coaching and administration
Llansà returned to FC Barcelona in the 1980s. In 1982, she began coaching her former team, before becoming the director of the women's section in 1984. This was an involved role, with Llansà organising major infrastructure as well as checking matchday kits herself.[5][3]
In 1984 she also became vice president of the women's football committee of the Catalan Football Federation (FCF), a role she held until 1998; she was awarded a gold medal by the FCF in 1992 for her contributions to women's football.[6]
When the Barcelona women's team was fully incorporated as a section of FC Barcelona in 2003, Llansà – who was still in charge of the section – stepped away from the club. She also left her role in the FCF at the same time. She received a recognition from the Barcelona Players' Association in 2017.[7][6]
Death
Llansà fell into ill health in 2019. In June, she was set to appear at a ceremony honouring the Barcelona team who won the Copa de la Reina in 1994, but could not. A few days later, on 26 June 2019, she died. Her funeral was held on the 29 June.[7]
