Young footballer

Laura is a female professional football player for a top-flight club. She plays mainly as a right winger but she can play in a more attacking or defensive role on the right flank.

Laura was born in a lower-middle class suburban house in a large city. In her close family, she has a father, mother, and older brother. In her early life she was spotted kicking a football. During her primary education, both her parents worked full-time, so she was mainly taken care of by her older brother.

Starting her secondary education, from her friendliness, Laura developed new friends whom she played football with during breaks where her skills stood out. Her mother quit her bakery job while her father became a real estate agent, relieving some financial pressure. Encouraged by her parents and friends, she signed up for the school's football program in second year. From the improving financial situation and her exceptional ability, she signed up for the local club by fourth year. She greatly contributed in her three-year stint, promoting the club twice in the first two seasons, winning several personal awards. Receiving compliments, in her third season she won the fifth-tier's golden boot, breaking the league's goal record. Despite being encouraged by her manager with a bigger club move, she wanted to focus on her studies and get a university degree, following her high grades.

For university Laura decided to study science full-time in a top-ranked university in the city centre, enjoying high grades. Early in first semester she moved to a top-flight club in the same city, producing great performances from off the bench. In the second year she became an important starter, earning plaudits from her parents and friends. She took a hiatus from study due to the conflict between sport and study, aiming to study part-time eventually. The same season she scored and assisted several times to improve her club's standing on the table's top half. She was awarded the league's best youth player at season's end, gaining media attention and praise.

Currently, it is Laura's second full season at the club, aiming to do even better in the league, along with other competitions. Since making herself more famous nationally she wishes to play for the national team, feeling overlooked during her youth. She is very technically gifted, playing in various right flank positions to boost her grace and agility as a smart play conductor. She is highly aware in attack and defence, and finds spaces to create chances and score, while halting attacks. Her parents are proud of her sporting career, sometimes attending games for support. She still lives with them but eventually wishes to rent an apartment. She is single but is open to a partner in the near future. She has a decent following on social media, mainly Twitter and Instagram.
