#4 Theo has played for Atleti since he was 10
Although Theo and Lucas were both born in Marseille when their father was playing for OM, they were very young when they moved to Spain – the younger brother was nothing more than a baby. As a result, both have been brought through the Spanish system, with Theo signing for Atletico Madrid in 2008.
As a result, he has been at Atletico Madrid since he was only 10 years old, working his way through the youth teams all the while. Remarkably, though, he has never played for Atleti’s starting XI, having been forced to settle for reserve and youth-level football throughout his stay. Nevertheless, he is valued at around €30 million.
