3 Real Madrid gems make Guardian’s list of 60 next big things

08 October 2020, 15:06

Takuhiro Nakai, Bruno Iglesias and Israel Salazar are the 3 Real Madrid youngsters included in The Guardian’s list of 60 best young talents in football.
The 16-year-old Nakai, a few years younger than Takefusa Kubo, is an exciting attacking midfielder whose impressive dribbling, close control and ability on the ball impressed Madrid to buy him.
Iglesias is a bright young No.10 with impressive consistency in scoring goals and providing assists for Madrid, while also being the youngster player to pledge 1% of his income to the Common Goal initiative.
17-year-old Salazar has scored over 150 goals since joining the club’s youth system as a 12-year-old and is currently part of Raul’s Juvenil A set-up after making his debut in our successful UEFA Youth League campaign.
The three will need to be honed properly by Raul and co as they possess enough talent to break into the Madrid first-team over the next few years if they can maintain their high standards.
