Isabel Gómez (Spanish: [ˈɡomes] GOH-mez; born 6 July 2002)[1] is an Australian professional soccer player who plays as an attacking midfielder for Damallsvenskan club FC Rosengård and the Australia national team.

Beginning her career at A-League Women club Western Sydney Wanderers and playing for National Premier Leagues NSW Women's (NPL NSW Women's) club Northern Tigers in the off-season, Gómez moved to Wellington Phoenix after just one season. In 2023, she completed a move to Central Coast Mariners, where she was part of the team that won the grand final at the end of the 2024–25 season (the women's team's first ever trophy), before later winning the Julie Dolan Medal for the 2025–26 season. After receiving call-ups for the Australia national team and establishing herself as one of the best players in the A-League Women, she secured a move to Damallsvenskan club FC Rosengård in 2026.
