Young Bar?a talent Kubasi recently made it into Spain’s latest squad, and he couldn’t be more thrilled.
Kubasi shared his joy upon learning about the selection: “On the day of the Champions League draw, the fitness coach suddenly said ‘Congratulations!’ That’s when I found out. Everyone started congratulating me, and I was delighted. They told me not to be nervous and just play my game.”
At 17 years old, born on January 22, 2007, if Kubasi starts in one of the upcoming international fixtures, he would surpass Sergio Ramos as the youngest ever starting defender for Spain.
The youngster commented on the potential milestone: “It would be a dream come true. If I achieve this and surpass my idol Ramos, I’d be very happy. I want to stay calm in the match, do what I’m supposed to, and not compare myself to anyone.”
