Career

edit

Marcos started her club career at Añorga.[4] Her time at Real Sociedad has been disrupted by injuries to her anterior cruciate ligament (damaging her left knee in September 2021 then her right knee in January 2023) requiring lengthy rehabilitation.[5][6][7][8] Despite these prolonged absences, in June 2023 she agreed a new contract running to 2025.[9]

She has been selected for the unofficial Basque Country women's national football team which plays only occasionally, making her first appearance in December 2022 against Chile.[10]
