Village Idiot Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Carles and Sergio Busquets won the CL once each as father and son for Barça (although Carles was still only reserve GK at that point, he became first choice later). Manuel Sanchís father and Manuel Sanchís son did the same for Real. The two Juan Veróns have also been very succesful, mainly in SA. Cruyff has had himself, son, son-in-law and grandson playing for Barça. Not particularly illustrious careers other than his own (although his son-in-law almost signed for the Dallas Cowboys as kicker). On a similar note President Lorenzo Sanz had at one point son Fernando Sanz and son-in-law Michel Salgado lining up in Real Madrid's defense. I'll try to think of some more... maybe we should split the thread? It's an interesting topic and the title was already vague to begin with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobby_solano Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 the maldini's (so far) cesare maldini - former manager / player (captain) with ac milan and italy. european cup winner paolo maldini - we all know about him paolo's got 2 sons too, the elder (christian) is 13 years old and a defender in the ac milan youth teams. if he does half as well as his dad or grandad he'll be doing alright Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Haven't they said that the only person who can wear Maldini's number in the future would be if any of his sons play for the first team? No pressure eh? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Perhaps not a dynasty yet but my word, Zinedine Zidane's son, Enzo, looks like he's going to be mint. There's a YouTube video I can't be arsed to search for with clips of him, and it's startling how much his style reminds you of his dad's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Well since he's named Zidane maybe he'll get a game in the first team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowen Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 The Laudrup brothers, the best football family ever? Are you meaning actual brothers of families? As if you're on about families as well you could include the Maldinis then brothers like Socrates/Rai, Baresis, Charltons, De Boers. Not to mention the Whitleys. The Robledos.

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 In terms of football dynasties we shouldn't forget Abedi Pele and his son Andre Ayew who is a promising prospect at l'OM who looks set to break through. Obviously there are the Toure (Kolo, Yaya, Ibrahim) Also there are the Olisehs, Sunday being the most famous. That family has produced four professional footballers including Sekou who is youngster at CSKA Moscow. Also, produced the manager credited with bringing Oba to Europe.

Ketsbaia Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 If Romario scored 1000 goals, then thats 40 every season (if he had 25 seasons)!!! So I'm a bit suspicious haha. Never knew about some of these families/relations though....what about George Weah and Ali Dia? One revolutionised football and became an all-time great, while the other played for AC Milan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I think Romario must be counting goals he's scored in his back garden. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 a lot of these goals were scored in meaningless touraments held in rio de janeiro against teams you've never even heard of. Like a london cup for example- (Imagine Thierry Henry coming up against the likes of Stevenage, Oxford etc.) But he's been a sensational player, no doubt about.
