🥺🔴 One of the greatest stories in football.
David Raya began his career at 19 years old, playing in front of fewer than 1,500 fans for Southport in the National League — the FIFTH tier of English football.
He was beaten 3-0 on his debut at Macclesfield. He wasn’t even a starter in his youth team back in Spain.
On Saturday, he plays in the Champions League Final against PSG. 🏆
His former coach at Southport said:
"I don’t think anybody could have predicted or scripted it."
"He had confidence and determination without arrogance. He was always humble."
From Southport to Blackburn. Blackburn to Brentford. Brentford to Arsenal for £27M. Premier League champion. Euro 2024 winner with Spain. And now… one game from completing a historic double. 🥺
Football really is the most beautiful sport. ❤️
