Carl Sagan Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Apparently on the bench for the Ilkeston match, a 19 year old from Athletico Madrid who captains a Spanish junior side and "lives to score goals": http://www.sefutbol.com/en/ivan-calero-u19-i-live-score-goals Sure I've heard his name mentioned before, but couldn't find an earlier thread.

Thierry Ennui Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Can someone explain to me how/why the captain of a young Spain side, who plays for Atletico Madrid, is on the bench for Derby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Can someone explain to me how/why the captain of a young Spain side, who plays for Atletico Madrid, is on the bench for Derby? You'd have thought that he would be at a big club of international renown - one with at least two stars on their badge - and not little old Derby.

Jenkinson Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Surely it is Rudel Calero (31) Nicaraguan striker. Or dead mexican keeper Miguel. "http://s020.radikal.ru/i721/1407/d7/34c63e5f5c1b" alt="34c63e5f5c1b"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Someone on twitter pointed at that a lot of these young trialists and new signings such as Roos and Santos are represented by the same agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uptherams Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 With the recent success at AM he probably does not have a chance to break into their match day squad or first team. Probably recognized he needs to move. I don't blame any young Spanish player choosing England over Spanish teams outside the top 6 or so. Entirely logical.

Srg Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 He's never been a captain for a Spanish team. UEFA website shows he's only played 6 times between u17 and u19s, and Wiki of Spanish u19 teams show nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Find him then, he's got nothing on there in the previous squads. No doubt he's played, but I don't know about being some kind of key man in the international set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt he's played, but I don't know about being some kind of key man in the international set up. Stop digging, Srg! In the link in my original post, he is described as "The striker and captain of the Under 19 squad" and they're reporting on him scoring the winning goal for the Spanish U19s in some international tournament. And then Jenkinson shows you a photo of him wearing the captain's armband. Yes the Spanish U19 captain is on the bench for a pre-season friendly away at Ilkeston. You could argue it's final proof that you are living in a computer simulation (http://www.simulation-argument.com/), but otherwise, just rejoice at that news!

Walsall_Ram Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Is this him? Off the official Atl Madrid site.. Seems to think he was born in 1980? "a74463f13fc2630a4bba6ae1c00a4c82" alt="a74463f13fc2630a4bba6ae1c00a4c82"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
