Julian Saavedra

Fuelled by the memory of losing his childhood pet turtle to a slow-moving garden mower, this fiery Spanish fullback has channeled that obsession with speed into explosive acceleration that leaves wingers in the dust. He combines sheer brute strength and bone-crunching tackles to dominate his flank, though his comical inability to win aerial duels remains his Achilles' heel. His relentless aggression ensures he is an iron wall on the pitch, even if he sometimes misses the flight of the ball.
