Barcelona teen Pau Cubarsi makes history on Spain debut and beats Sergio Ramos’ record

Pau Cubarsi made his Spain debut on Friday and wrote his name into the history books along the way in La Roja’s friendly clash with Colombia.

The 17-year-old became the youngest defender in history to debut for the Spain team when he entered the pitch with 10 minutes to play.

Cubarsi beats the record previously held by Sergio Ramos (who was 18 years and 11 months old when he debuted) after replacing Aymeric Laporte for Luis de la Fuente’s side.
