Tenerife’s club reinforces their midfield and defence after a trio moves to Granadilla. Sandra Hernández, Berta Méndez and Isabel Álvarez will all wear blue-white jersey in the next season.
Sandra Hernández was born on Canary Island, but moved to Barcelona at age 17 to play for Blaugrana, where she won Liga Iberdrola and Copa de la Reina. She stayed there for 3 years before moving to Valencia in 2017. After more than 50 appearances with The Bats, she returns home to the Canary Islands.
