RReal Madrid legend Marcelo’s legacy continues after his retirement with his son Enzo Alves, who has just signed his first professional contract with the club where his father left an indelible mark.
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the 16-year-old forward signed the contract on Monday, January 26, and according to his family, he considers this contract with the Spanish club to be a very good thing and that it was an important step in his career.
Enzo Alves is considered a diamond in the rough by Real Madrid
Coach Valdebebas has high hopes for the soccer development of the 16-year-old Spaniard, who has Brazilian ancestry on both his mother’s and father’s sides, and who, according to many club and sports fans around the world, was one of the best full-backs in Real Madrid’s history, and in the history of football in general.
Enzo Alves continues to make great strides at La Fábrica del Real Madrid, with this year proving to be particularly positive for the young son of the Los Blancos legend. Enzo played for Juvenil B team in his first year as a youth player, but has been with Juvenil A team since the beginning of the season.
How did Marcelo react to his son’s signing with Real Madrid?
Marcelo, who is undoubtedly a Real Madrid legend, having won five Champions Leagues, six La Liga titles, three UEFA Super Cups, four Club World Cups, two Copa del Rey and five Supercopa de España titles, Marcelo could not hide his pride and joy at his son’s next great step at one of the world’s best clubs.
I’m so proud of you, son. You deserve it all! Happy birthday, I love you. We stand firm and strong.
Enzo Alves makes his Castilla debut
The Spanish striker made his debut on the European stage for Real Madrid when he started for Real Madrid Castilla’s side just a week after being called up for the first time in the youth league against Olympiakos.
Just a week after achieving that goal, the challenge for Castilla came at the age of 16. Arbeloa, who was the team’s coach at the time before being promoted to the first team to replace the sacked Xabi Alonso, made his first-team debut with Juvenile A last season and in the Premier League International Cup against Manchester City.
