Eva María Navarro García (born 27 January 2001) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a forward for Primera División club Levante UD and the Spain national team.

Club career

Early years

Navarro began playing futsal with local club Hispania Yecla before moving to play club football for Pinoso in nearby Alicante. In 2015, Navarro signed with Sporting Plaza de Argel, debuting in the Segunda División. While with the club, Navarro helped reach the promotion play-offs in 2016–17 and 2017–18.[5]

Levante UD

On 26 June 2018, Navarro signed for Primera División club Levante UD.[5] On 9 September 2018, she made her debut for the club as a 61st minute substitute in the season opener, a 1–0 win over Rayo Vallecano. On 22 December 2018, she scored her first goal for Levante in a 4–2 defeat to Logroño.[6] Her contract expired in June 2020. However, Navarro was one of 17 players in a class action lawsuit against the Association of Women's Football Clubs (ACFF) and the Association of Spanish Football Players (AFE) disputing the use of the Compensation List that would unrealistically inflate the fee necessary for other Primera División to sign allocated players as free agents. Navarro's compensation was set at €500,000, pricing any Spanish club out of signing her as a free agent.[7][8] While teammate Ona Batlle opted to move abroad for free in July,[9] Navarro wanted to remain in Spain. In August 2020, she elected to sign a one-year extension at Levante.[10]

International career

Youth

Navarro has represented Spain at under-17, under-19 and under-20 level including at six major youth tournaments: three UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship editions (2016, 2017 and 2018), two FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup editions (2016 and 2018), the 2019 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship and the 2018 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.[4][11]

On 21 May 2018, Navarro scored both goals in a 2–0 win over Germany in the 2018 UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship final.[12] She finished as the second highest scorer with 6 goals and was named to the team of the tournament.[13] In August, Navarro was called up to the 2018 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup squad as a 17-year-old, playing in all six games as Spain lost in the final to Japan.[14] In December 2018, Navarro returned to the under-17 side to compete at her third major tournament of the year, traveling to Uruguay for the 2018 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. Navarro scored two goals during the group stage on the way to helping Spain win the tournament, beating Mexico 2–1 in the final.[15]

Senior

On 17 May 2019, Navarro made her senior debut in a 4–0 friendly victory over Cameroon, appearing as a 74th minute substitute for Esther González.[16] She scored her first senior goal on 27 November 2020 in a 10–0 UEFA Women's Euro 2022 qualifying victory over Moldova.[17]
