Biel Borra Font (born 22 October 2005) is a footballer who plays as a right back for Spanish Segunda Federación club UE Olot. Born in Spain, he made his debut for the Andorra national team in 2024.
Club career
Born in Barcelona to a father from Andorra and a mother from Banyoles in the Province of Girona, Borra grew up in Banyoles.[1] He began playing football aged 3 at UE Porqueres, then CE Banyoles, before joining the youth ranks of Girona FC at age 12.[2]
After six years, Borra left Girona without making the first team, and signed for FC L'Escala.[2] In 2025, he signed for UE Vilassar de Mar, also in the fifth-tier Tercera Federación.[3] After making 29 appearances, he moved up one division to UE Olot in the Segunda Federación in July 2026.[4]
International career
Borra represented the Andorra national under-19 team from the age of 16.[1] On 21 November 2023, he scored an equaliser in a 2–1 comeback win against hosts Bulgaria in the last game of 2024 UEFA European Under-19 Championship qualification, overtaking Bulgaria to third place and one point off qualification to the next round.[5]
Borra's debut for the under-21 team came at the age of 17 on 23 November 2022, in a 2–1 friendly loss away to Malta.[6]
On 3 September 2024, manager Koldo Álvarez called Borra up to the senior team for a friendly away to Gibraltar the next day.[7] He made his debut aged 18 by starting in the 1–0 loss at Europa Point Stadium.[8]
