Mariana Larroquette started playing football at the age of six, spending afternoons playing with her grandfather in Castelar, Argentina, where she grew up surrounded by the game.

Her childhood nickname was “Batichica”, inspired by Argentine striker Gabriel Batistuta, who was her football idol because of his goalscoring ability.

She became the first Argentine player to compete in Norway’s top women’s league when she joined Lyn in 2020.
