Oooookay, I didn’t really expect that. Nivea has posted a trailer for an ASMR campaign that they are doing in conjunction with Real Madrid. It will be coming later in the year and you can vote (further down the page) on which character’s film you want to see next: security guard, physiotherapist, greenskeeper or player. If it were up to me, I would just have a perpetual Sergio Ramos ASMR. Can you imagine? The snap of a headband settling into place, the brushing of his hair (it’s getting longer!), the clank of a large Gucci belt buckle, the grunt of exertion as he tries to wiggle into skin tight green jeans, the spritzing of manly cologne, the creak of leather on an overpriced leather Frankenjacket, the jingling of his car keys as he leaves for the mall, the chonk-chonk of his bedazzler as he works on a new ball cap… It would be a beautiful thing. 2020 is already looking up.

Our newest player, goalkeeper Alphonse, joined on loan from PSG this month. He has represented France at the U16, U17, U18, U19,U20, U21 and senior levels.
Center defender Éder Militão just joined Real Madrid. He has represented Brazil at the U17 and senior levels.
I love how our Dani is throwing some Blue Steel in this picture. The midfielder joined Los Blancos in 2017 and has represented Spain at the U19, U21 and senior levels.
18 year old (19 on November 4th) right back Achraf has already been playing for Real Madrid for a decade, coming up through our youth system. He was promoted to the first team this year. He has represented Morocco at the U20, U23 and the senior levels.
Today’s Drool is one of our newest (actually old) Muppet Babies. Center back Jesús was actually signed to Real Madrid back in 2015 on a 5 year deal but was immediately loaned back to Real Zaragoza (the team we got him from). After that season he moved on to Eintracht Frankfurt and continued making a name for himself. He’s now joining us for the new season (more on that soon – hopefully tonight). He has represented Spain at the U16, U17, U19 and U21 levels. He was the captain of Spain’s U-19 Euro winning squad.

Didn’t think I would forget our boys, did you? Forward Mariano joined our cantera in 2011 and was promoted to the first team in 2016. He has represented the Dominican Republic at the senior level.
Our fiesty little winger came up through the Real Madrid cantera and has represented Spain at the senior level.
