Fernando Torres' Nike match
worn boots. This special made to measure
boots were worn during the season 2010 and FIFA World Cup 2010.
Both boots are signed and personalized with
"F. Torres", "Oly" and
"Nora". Before joining the Premier
League aged 23, Torres spent 12
years with hometown club Atletico
Madrid. Such was his
prodigious
talent he was named the best U14 player in Europe following
his
performances in the 1998 Nike Cup. Torres became the youngest
player
in Atletico history upon making his debut in May 2001. He went
on to bag
21 goals in 2003-04 after being named Vicente Calderon's
youngest ever
skipper at the age of 19. Having already top-scored in
European U16 and
U19 Championships, El Nino earned a first senior
cap in September 2003
against Portugal. Seven months later he
chalked up a first international
goal. The forward would go on to net
three times in the
2006 World Cup in Germany.
