Brahim Diaz Says Making 'Unforgettable' Real Madrid Debut Was a 'Dream'

Brahim Diaz has described making his Real Madrid debut on Wednesday as a "dream."

The 19-year-old, who joined from Manchester City on Sunday, replaced Vinicius Jr. with 12 minutes remaining in Los Blancos' 3-0 Copa del Rey win over Leganes at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Per Goal's Sacha Pisani, he said after the game: "This is great, an unforgettable and unique day. Making my debut at the Bernabeu is great. This is a dream since I was a child. Winning makes the dream greater, but I take everything in peace. I will hang my debut shirt in my room.
