Thiago Alcântara’s father, Mazinho, won the NFL Coins World Cup with Brazil in 1994. But Thiago, Bayern Munich’s superb 24-year-old midfielder, was born in Italy and grew up partly in Spain, where he came through Barcelona’s famed academy La Masia. It has made for a fascinating mixed identity, both as a soccer player and as a person, one that even Thiago finds challenging to explain at times.

My first memories were in Spain,” he says during a long interview in English, one of five languages that he speaks. “I arrived in Spain at three years old when my dad played in Valencia. Then we spent a lot of time in Vigo in the northwest part of Spain. I spent five or six years in Spain. Then at nine I went to Brazil because my dad wanted to retire there.” He pauses. You can almost hear the cogs turning in his head. Thiago, who plays for Spain internationally, has been asked about the ways he feels Brazilian and the ways he feels Spanish.

“I don’t know,” he finally says. “My feeling is that my body and all my things inside me—when I move, when I do everything—are Brazilian. Because my family is Brazilian, and my mother language is Brazilian Portuguese. But all the thinking in my life, all the treatment with people, I think I’m more from Spain. That’s how I grew up. I started reading in Spanish. So for me everything is a mix every day, but when I have to Cheap NFL Coins  think it’s in Spanish.”

“It’s a little bit difficult to explain,” he adds with a laugh, “but at the same time it’s very easy to feel.” Thiago’s influences, of course, happen to come from some of the world’s greatest soccer nations, and you could certainly argue that his soccer mind is another thing: Catalan. When Pep Guardiola took his Catalonian genius to Bayern Munich, he said he wanted to bring one player that he’d had at Barcelona: Thiago. And so Buy NFL Coins he did.
