Club career

Espanyol

Born in Sant Julià de Vilatorta, Barcelona, Catalonia, Jutglà joined Espanyol's youth setup in 2012, after representing Sant Julià de Vilatorta CF and Vic Riuprimer REFO FC.[2] He left the former club in 2015, and subsequently played for Vic and Unificación Bellvitge[3] before signing for Sant Andreu in 2017.[4]

Initially joining the Juvenil A squad, Jutglà made his senior debut on 20 August 2017, playing the last 12 minutes in a 0–0 Tercera División home draw against Santboià.[5] He scored his first senior goal on 3 September, netting his team's second in a 2–0 home win over Pobla de Mafumet.[6][7]

On 14 February 2018, after eight first team matches, Jutglà was transferred to Valencia and immediately returned to the youth setup.[8] He returned to Espanyol on 18 July, but was immediately loaned back to Sant Andreu for the 2018–19 season.[9] He was a regular starter before returning to his parent club in July 2019, and was subsequently assigned to the B-team in Segunda División B.[10]

In July 2020, Jutglà was called up for the first team under manager Francisco Rufete for a La Liga game against Eibar, but did not play.[11] On 22 June 2021, despite featuring regularly for the B's, Espanyol announced that Jutglà would leave the club at the expiration of his contract on 30 June.[12]

Barcelona

On 22 June 2021, just hours after announcing his departure from Espanyol, Jutglà signed a one-year contract with

Primera División RFEF.[13] He made his debut for Barça B on 28 August, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Algeciras CF
.

Jutglà scored his first goal for the B's on 24 September 2021, netting his team's second in a 2–1 home win over Linense.[14] On 11 December, he was called up by first team manager Xavi to trainings.[15]

On 12 December 2021, Jutglà made his first team – and La Liga – debut for Barcelona, coming on as a late substitute for goalscorer Abde Ezzalzouli in a 2–2 away draw against Osasuna.[16] On his first match as a starter six days later, he scored the opener of a 3–2 home win over Elche.[17] On 26 May, he announced his departure from the club in a Twitter post.[18]

Club Brugge

On 8 June 2022, Club Brugge announced the signing of Jutglà on a four-year deal for a transfer fee of €5 million.[19] He made his debut on 17 July, starting in their 1–0 Belgian Super Cup victory over Gent.[20] On 13 September, he converted a penalty in a 4–0 away Champions League group win away to Porto, his first goal in the competition.[21] He was the league season's joint ninth top scorer with 13 goals,[22] including his first career hat-trick on 23 April 2023 in a 7–0 win at home to Eupen.[23]

Jutglà scored both goals on 18 April 2024 in the UEFA Europa Conference League quarter-final second leg away to PAOK in Greece, making Club Brugge the first Belgian club to reach the last four of a European competition since 1993.[24]

International career

On 24 May 2022, Jutglà was called up by manager Gerard López of the unofficial Catalonia national football team for a match against Jamaica in Girona, replacing Dani Olmo.[25] In the game the following day, he came on in the 59th minute for hat-trick scorer Gerard Deulofeu and scored the fifth goal of a 6–0 win.[26]
