Spain and Athletico Bilbao forward Iker Muniain Goñi‘s record as the youngest player to ever score a goal in the La Liga has been broken by Fabrice Olinga a Cameroonian who plays for Malaga.
16-year-old Olinga fronted for the Malaga team in a game that was the first of the new season against Celta Vigo.
Though he was brought in as a substitute but he led his team to victory, barely 25 minutes after his debut.
Presently the youngest player of Malaga, he was part of the “Samuel Eto’o Foundation” in Cameroon and in 2009, he arrived Spain to join the youth ranks of RCD Mallorca and was later persuaded by Málaga’s academy director, Manuel Casanova to join Málaga CF, a team where he played crucial role in the success of Málaga’s youth side as they reached the final of Copa del Rey Juvenil in 2012 even though he didn’t feature in the finals due to suspension.
