following Real Madrid…

carrying on the family tradition

As you know, Real Madrid recently updated the fichas of all the players in their youth systems, bringing us this.

From Alevín B, we have Benja Garay, the 10-year-old younger brother of Ezequiel Garay.  He’s also a central defender, and unsurprisingly, his favorite player is his brother.  (And unfortunately, Benjamín was never in the Benjamín category).

One of the players of Cadete B is Alfonso Adán, younger brother of (and a mini) Antonio Adán, and he is also a goalkeeper.  He’s 14 and his brother is also his favorite player.

And on Castilla, we have Javi H., the 21-year-old cousin of Guti, who is also an attacking midfielder and a confessed admirer of his cousin (I’m sensing a couple of themes here, no?).

And of course, we also have three of the four little Zidanes in the cantera (Elyaz is still too young to join, but he does play football).  Theo is eight years old and a forward with Benjamín B.  His favorite player is Cristiano Ronaldo.  Luca is 12, plays as a goalkeeper with Infantil B and admires Iker Casillas.  And Enzo is 15, plays as a midfielder with Cadete A and is more loyal to his father, listing Zidane as his favorite player.  I hope Elyaz grows up to be a defender, so we’d have a Zidane for every position!

And Miguel Pardeza’s son Dani plays with Juvenil C, and Chendo’s son Eduardo is with Alevín A!

Bonus:  here is the profile of MFC and here is that of MS(econd)FC.
