Perspective
Early career
Born in Sant Julià de Vilatorta, Barcelona, Catalonia, Jutglà joined Espanyol's youth setup in 2012, after representing CF Sant Julià de Vilatorta and Vic Riuprimer REFO FC.[2] He was released by the former club in 2015, and subsequently returned to Vic.[3] In 2017, after being a part of the squad of Unificación Bellvitge in the División de Honor,[4] he returned to his hometown club Sant Julià to play in the last matches of the season; he played as a winger for the youth sides, while also featuring as a centre-back for the first team in Tercera Catalana.[5]
In 2017, Jutglà signed for Sant Andreu.[6] Initially joining the Juvenil A squad, he made his senior debut on 20 August of that year, playing the last 12 minutes in a 0–0 Tercera División home draw against Santboià.[7] He scored his first senior goal on 3 September, netting his team's second in a 2–0 home win over Pobla de Mafumet.[8][9]
On 14 February 2018, after eight first team matches, Jutglà was transferred to Valencia and immediately returned to the youth setup.[10]
Espanyol
Released by Valencia,[5] Jutglà returned to Espanyol on 18 July 2018, but was immediately loaned back to Sant Andreu for the 2018–19 season.[11] There, he earned a monthly wage of € 700, which he would spent only in gas from coming and going to trainings; he would later work as a lifeguard in three different pools in Osona to earn more money.[5]
Back to the Pericos in July 2019, Julià was assigned to the B-team in Segunda División B.[12] In July 2020, he was called up for the first team under manager Francisco Rufete for a La Liga game against Eibar, but did not play.[13] 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.[14]
Barcelona
On 22 June 2021, just hours after announcing his departure from Espanyol, Jutglà signed a one-year contract with city rivals FC Barcelona, being initially assigned to the reserves in Primera División RFEF.[15] 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.[16] On 11 December, he was called up by first team manager Xavi to trainings.[17]
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.[18] On his first match as a starter six days later, he scored the opener of a 3–2 home win over Elche.[19] On 26 May, he announced his departure from the club in a Twitter post.[20]
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.[21] He made his debut on 17 July, starting in their 1–0 Belgian Super Cup victory over Gent.[22] 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.[23] He was the league season's joint ninth top scorer with 13 goals,[24] including his first career hat-trick on 23 April 2023 in a 7–0 win at home to Eupen.[25]
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.[26]
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.[27] 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.[28]
