Fernando Jose Torres Sanz

Fernando Torres is a Spanish footballer. Atletico Madrid forward. Former member of the Spanish national team. World champion and two-time European champion. Fans know him by the nickname El Niño.

Fernando Jose Torres Sans was born on March 20, 1984 in the provincial town of Fuenlabrade near Madrid. He was the third child of his parents. Jose and Flori Torres have already raised his older brother Israel and sister Marie Pas. For them, little Fernando was an outlet, since he was a calm baby, unlike Israel and Mari, who just stood on their heads.

When the boy was 4 years old, he became interested in football. Of course, at first it was not like a real game, but he kicked the ball with great pleasure. Parents noticed their son's interest and at the age of 5 they sent him to the first football team "Park 84".

Every free minute he ran with the ball. True, playing with his brother, he often acted as a goalkeeper. Once Israel hit the goal so hard that Fernando knocked out two teeth. After this incident, Torres decided to end his goalkeeper career.

In 1991 he became a striker for the Marios Holanda team. And in 1995 Fernando joined Atletico Madrid. This was the younger age group. He was 11 years old. According to Fernando Torres himself, his grandfather contributed to the choice of the club. He was not a football fan, but as soon as it came to Atlético, his grandfather became just obsessed.

The training took place on the outskirts of Madrid, in the Orcasitas area. Getting from Fuenlabrada was not easy, sometimes the father had to take time off from work to take his son to football. Mom took an active part in this.

But if they drove with dad, then the road with mom took many times longer - first they went by bus, then by train. Older siblings often accompanied him to and from training. So every family member is directly involved in its success. Fernando has repeatedly said in interviews that if it were not for them, he would never have become a professional footballer.

In 1999, when Fernando Torres was 15 years old, he signed his first professional contract. The guy became a reserve player for Atlético. In 2001, he started playing in the main team. In the first season in the top division, Torres scored 13 goals, and in the 2003-2004 season he was recognized as the team's top scorer. Then Fernando became its captain, at that time he was only 19 years old.

Despite his excellent physical data (height - 186 cm, weight - 69 kg), Fernando has rather childish facial features. Perhaps that is why the footballer was given the nickname El Niño, which means "baby". But the results he showed were by no means childish. For both Atlético Madrid and Spain, it has become the ultimate goal scoring machine.

In 2007, Fernando Torres received an impressive offer from the English club Liverpool. He had been waiting for a change for a long time, therefore, although this decision was difficult for him, he left his native club and moved to England.

In his first season, Torres scored 24 goals in the Premier League, thus breaking the record for the most goals scored by a foreign debutant. He was successful for two years at Liverpool, but his performance deteriorated in the 2010-2011 season as he missed many games due to injuries.

In January 2011, Liverpool sold Fernando Torres to Chelsea for £ 58.5 million, the most expensive transfer for the club at the time. They offered El Niño a salary of £ 175,000 a week. With Chelsea, Fernando won the FA Cup and also won the Champions League and Europa League.

In 2014, Torres transferred to Milan on loan. At the end of the year, it became known that the striker returned to his home club, Atletico Madrid. In May 2015, he was named the best player in the team according to the fans.

At the Spanish Championship in the 2016-2017 season, after a collision with an opponent, Torres fell and hit his head so that he even lost consciousness. Later it turned out that the injury was not serious, but he scared everyone.

As part of the Spanish national team, Fernando Torres became world champion and twice European champion.

The forward's statistics are declining every year. Increasingly, he sits on the bench. Over the past six years, it has hit its market value hard. In June 2018, the lease agreement with both Atlético and Milan expires.

The footballer met his wife Olalia Dominguez as a child. They got married in 2009. The lovers chose to simply sign. Soon the couple had a daughter, Nora, and a year and a half later, their son Leo. When his first child was carried out to the young father in the hospital, he told reporters that this was his best trophy. In 2015, Torres became a father for the third time - the couple had a son.

On Instagram, the footballer does not publish family photos. But on the other hand, his wife Olalia does it, in her account there are a lot of home staff with children and her husband.

Like other footballers, Fernando Torres has advertising contracts. He has starred in commercials for Pepsi and Samsung. The striker also appeared in several documentaries about football.

In 2009 he presented his autobiography “El Niño. My story".

In 2018, the footballer announced that he was leaving Atletico Madrid at the end of the season. He did not say where he plans to go, but noted that he does not want to go to any other club in Spain.

In April 2018, his agent Antonio Sans spoke out about the striker's departure from Atlético. According to him, Fernando will not stay either in Spain or in Europe. He did not give any specifics, but hinted that it could be the United States or China.
