No, it’s not a Galácticos reunion — it’s Chivas Guadalajara’s actual squad list for the 2025/2026 season, and it’s going viral for good reason.
The Mexican club has officially registered several players with legendary football names:
- Cristiano Ronaldo Rojas Vidal (16 years old)
- Zinedine Sidane Hernández Quezada (18 years old)
- Robinho Romero Quintero (19 years old)
- Roberto Carlos Alvarado Hernández (26 years old)
Yes, those names are real. And yes, they’re all part of Chivas’ first team this season.
Zinedine Sidane (with an “S”) went viral two years ago when his father revealed that his name was meant to be a tribute to Zidane — until a clerical error at registration changed the spelling.
As for Cristiano Ronaldo (the young Mexican one, not the five-time Ballon d’Or winner), he’s just been promoted to the senior squad at age 16. A brilliant coincidence — and maybe a hint of destiny.
Chivas may not be lifting the Champions League just yet, but when it comes to football storytelling, they’re already winning.
