RODRI SÁNCHEZ: THE JOY OF PLAYING FOOTBALL
The smile of Rodri inside and outside the pitch show everybody how much he loves football and how strong is his will to emerge. His story can be seen as a great example of resilience and desire of fighting hard to find your own place in this challenging sport. Apparently he’s doing pretty well: there’s a reason why many experts consider him one of the best talents of his generation and is often compared to spanish legend Joaquìn.
I WON'T STOP UNTIL I GET THERE
After growing in some of the best Spanish “canteras” (Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona to name a few) Rodri found his perfect place beneath the expert hands of Manuel Pellegrini. With the green-white jersey the young talent started to prove everybody he’s more than a smiley and kind boy: he has skills to sell, and he’s eager to keep growing along with his team. His main strength is his deadly left foot, along with excellent speed and stamina, and above all his willpower. After 8 years in Sevilla, he departed from a new exotic adventure in Qatar land, where he was brought to be one of the leaders and the main stars of the team.

THE SKY IS THE CEILING
