'One day you are Messi, the next nobody wants you' - Saul Niguez staying positive with Spain & Atletico

The 23-year-old is hoping for a long career as he dreams of following in some iconic footsteps for club and country

Saul Niguez dreams of being the future for Spain and Atletico Madrid, but is aware that a positive mindset must complement technical ability in order for him to follow in illustrious footsteps.

At just 23 years of age, the highly-rated midfielder is already a seasoned senior performer with over 200 club appearances to his name and 10 caps for his country.

Big things are expected from him, with La Roja beginning to look towards a new era of talent as a golden generation that delivered so much success begins to fade out of the international picture.
