Real Madrid legend's 16-year-old son signs first professional contract with Los Blancos

Enzo’s progression at Valdebebas has been described as "stratospheric" by club insiders. Unlike his father, who made his name as a technically gifted left-back, Enzo is a powerful, incisive forward who bullies defenders and knows the route to goal. He is currently closing in on the remarkable landmark of 200 goals as a Real Madrid academy player, a statistic that underlines his dominance at youth level.

His rapid ascent has seen him shatter age-grade ceilings. Last season, despite being just 15 years old, he made his debut for the Juvenil A (U19) side, announcing his arrival by scoring in a mini-derby against Atletico Madrid. His trajectory continued to steepen this campaign when Alvaro Arbeloa, during his tenure leading Real Madrid Castilla, handed Enzo his debut for the reserve side. The teenager was given the nod in a high-pressure Under 21 Premier League International Cup fixture against Manchester City, proving that the club’s coaches are eager to fast-track his development against elite opposition.
