JAKARTA - Real Madrid's first three goals against Real Mallorca last weekend were all assisted by the same person: June Calafat. He is the third point of the triangle running the club, behind Florentino Perez and Jose Angel Sanchez.

Calafat is the driving force behind the signing of Fede Valverde, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo Goes, all three goalscorers on Sunday night.

Calafat's story is one of the most interesting. He turned from being an unknown player to being the mastermind behind football from the most famous club in the world.

New Calafat actually started to enter the world of football, as Ronaldo Nazario's right and left hand during his playing career with Los Blancos. His outstanding work in various circles brought him to television, where he excelled until he made a jump in 2013 to Real Madrid.

Calafat started with a strong focus on youth-level football. Today he works as the Head of the talent of the club and he leads a big team and is well prepared, and has a group of employees spread around the world.

Calafat was born in Spain, but he grew up in Brazil and this is part of his life that gave him a deep understanding of the South American country and its footballer.

The signing of Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo, must be linked with this talent scout. In addition, he also played an important role in the arrival of Eder Militao, who demonstrated his strength because at that time many well-known advisers liked Matthijs De Ligt.

It's important to know how to listen. None of the three players find it easy to stay in Madrid as soon as possible with Reinier and will be for Endrick.

Florentino Perez's responsibility to Calafat is clear: 'don't let the others Neymar escape the net'.

Although, the waters where Calafat fished far beyond Brazil. The perfect example of this is Fede Valverde, which is imported from Penarol at relatively small costs.

In addition to providing assists for Vinicius Jr's winning goal in the Champions League final, he also brought Estadio Santiago Bernabeu to the ground on Sunday with an amazing individual goal.

In Europe, there are players like Andriy Lunin, Brahim Diaz, Martin Odegaard and, recently, Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni are interesting.

However, for all Calafat's success, there have been some very sad failures. Lucas Silva, Sergio Diaz and even Luka Jovin.

'Methode Calafat': from professional to personal

The success of the June Calafat surpassed the young talent, with a very significant case: Eden Hazard.

For the most expensive signing in Real Madrid history, he traveled to London for years, close to Hazard in one way or another.

This journey summarizes the key to his philosophy, where personal aspects are heavier than the sports aspect.

There is a hours-long observation and analysis basis, instinct and intelligence, but for this he adds a real personal touch to his interest in Los Blancos' personal life and career targets.
