The long-term future of the Spanish National Team is in good hands. Or rather, on good feet, specifically in those of the Fabio, Gavi, Fabián Luzzi, Julen Jon Guerrero and company. Under the orders of Pablo Amo, La Rojita beat his Portuguese counterpart this Wednesday in the Lafarge Foot Avenir tournament, which takes place this week in the French town of Limoges.
Players born after 2003 compete in this tournament and among them there are great promises of Spanish football that are becoming realities. This is the case of Fabio Blanco, Valencia youth squad who this summer packed his bags to go to Germany and jump directly from the lower categories of the Valencia team to the Eintracht first team, which bet on him more than Real Madrid and Barça, who wanted him for their respective subsidiaries. Against Portugal he was the star of the match with Luzzi, a 16-year-old Hispanic-Brazilian boy who plays in the lower ranks of Barcelona, who signed him from Rayo. Fabio assisted the Barça forward in both goals, who made a double.
He is also part of this batch of players that excites the RFEF Gavi, from Barça, known for his recent debut in LaLiga last weekend against Getafe, being the fourth youngest to wear the Barça shirt in an official match. Another of the outstanding players is Julen Jon Guerrero, son of the legendary Athletic Bilbao player, who is also the captain of this U-18. Julen, unlike his father, who played all his life in Bilbao, is training in the lower categories of Real Madrid, which has been following his progression closely for a long time..
