Brahim Diaz Becomes Youngest Player In History To Win Serie A, La Liga And Premier League
JAKARTA – The exit of AC Milan as champion of the Italian Serie A gave a new record for their player Brahim Diaz. He became the youngest player in the history of football to have collected titles in the top three European leagues.
The 22-year-old playmaker has just helped the Rossoneri win the Scudetto title. The Red and Black won the competition with city rivals, Inter Milan, by only two points.
The title made him the youngest player as well as the first Spanish player to successfully lift three of Europe's top league trophies.
He got the Scudetto at the age of 22 years, nine months and 19 days. Before winning the Italian Serie A, he had already won the English Premier League and Spanish La Liga.
In history, only three players have won the three trophies. The other two were Cristiano Ronaldo and Danilo, but they won it at a much older age than Brahim Diaz.
Ronaldo and Brahim both started their winning streak in England with the city club Manchester. Ronaldo won the Premier League Manchester United, while Brahim collected the same trophy at Manchester City.
Then the two players added to their collection of league titles with Real Madrid. CR7 then moved to Juventus and got the Scudetto there before being followed by Brahim Diaz with AC Milan.
Meanwhile, Danilo's journey is the opposite. He won La Liga with Real Madrid, Premier League with Manchester City, and then the Scudetto at Juventus.
When City won, he played 49 minutes in five games. While at Real Madrid, he made six appearances or 130 minutes, and scored one goal and provided one assist.
Then history was successfully carved by this Malaga-born player in his second season playing for Milan. With the underdog club unseeded for Serie A, he finished 11th in minutes played with four goals and four assists.
