Julian Alvarez and the truth behind La Arana’s Real Madrid Academy connection

Despite donning the regal white, Julian Alvarez never officially joined Real Madrid’s academy. Julian Alvarez, the beloved “ La Arana ” of the current world champions, is currently playing for Manchester City. The Argentine forward has made some real impact both at his club and during the FIFA World Cup in Qatar for La Albiceleste , where he netted four crucial goals, including two in the semifinal. For quite some time, one particular photo of a young Julian Alvarez wearing a Real Madrid kit has circulated widely on social media, leading many to speculate about his past connections with the Spanish giants. Julian Alvarez’s journey in football began in his hometown of Cordoba, Argentina. He started his youth career at Atletico Calchin, a local club where his talent first shone through. It was during this period that an opportunity arose for young Julian to travel to Spain for a trial in Girona. He eventually got a chance to practice with Real Madrid, courtesy of an invitation from Ramon

The day Lionel Messi became 'Inmessionante' in the Spanish Lexicon

Leo Messi has an entire word dedicated to him in the Spanish dictionary, inducted as early as 2013. By the summer of 2013, Lionel Messi had already won the European golden shoe thrice, the Ballon d’Or an incredible four-times (all back-to-back) and team trophies pushing well over double digits before the player even hit his mid-twenties. Above all, the Argentine magician had changed the perception of how a single player could run the show, with such unmatchable grace that stood in utter conflict to reason the monstrous numbers he was putting one. [Yeah, 91 goals in a calendar year for one.] Such was La Pulga’s impact on Spanish football and the sport as a whole that, even as yearly as 2013, Messi had a special word dedicated to him in the Spanish dictionary! And what is that word? “IMMESSIONATE” INMESSIONANTE (from the Spanish dictionary): adj. 1. Referring to Messi; the perfect way of playing football; unlimited capacity for self-improvement 2. Said of the best football player of all

“We have one heart bro, how many times will you win it” – Fans melt over Lionel Messi’s honest admission after deflecting Enzo Fernandez’ pass in Copa America semifinal

Team Argentina are in the Copa America Finals, again. Lionel Messi and Co. have punched their tickets to the Copa America 2024 finals in Miami. The Argentine captain scored his first goal of the tournament in their 2-0 semifinal victory over Canada on Wednesday. Julian Alvarez broke the deadlock at the 22nd minute off Rodrigo De Paul’s ‘splitting Canada in half’ pass. The Argentine youngster took a couple of controlled touches before slipping the ball between Maxime Crépeau’s legs which now takes his international knockout goals to four in just seven KO appearances. (you’ve spent enough time on FT to know what we’re getting at, right?) The second goal, which originally came from an Enzo Fernandez’ shot directed at the Canadian net, fell Lionel Messi ’s way, who deftly slotted the ball home. However, the Argentine captain made a quick honest admission right after the game that he had not intended to score it himself in the first place. Leo Messi: "I told Enzo that it wasn't my
