Ane Elexpuru Añorga[a] (born 2 May 2003) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a right back or right winger for Athletic Club.

[4][5] She was immediately assigned to the B-team and was a regular in the side for the next five seasons, amassing well over 100 appearances in the second tier (her expected progression to the main squad was delayed mainly due to the good form of Ane Azkona and Oihane Hernández in the right-sided positions).

She also continued to pursue her education, attending the University of the Basque Country to study teaching.

Ahead of the 2023–24 Liga F, with Oihane having moved on to Real Madrid, Elexpuru was promoted officially to the main squad.

She became a regular in the team and was a member of the squads which won the 2022 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship in the Czech Republic (scoring in a win over the hosts then in the final against Norway)[9][6] followed by the 2022 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Costa Rica[5] (alongside clubmates Clara Pinedo and Maite Zubieta).
