Ronaldo number, versatility and more: 5 things to know about Peter Federico called up by Ancelotti

Rodrygo, Marco Asensio and Gareth Bale will all miss the game against Cadiz – so it's time to see who we've got at Castilla.

Carlo Ancelotti has called up 19-year-old Peter Federico whose natural position is right winger. Here is what you should know about him.

He's carrying number 7

This is Federico's Real Madrid number in the UEFA Youth League where he has scored 2 goals and provided one assist in 6 matches this season.

As the youngster is a winger, you may already start being nostalgic about Cristiano Ronaldo's Real Madrid times.

What differs him from Cristiano is his strong foot which is left.

He is versatile

Federico could play on both wings, but what's even more surprising, he has had a few appearances at left-back!

However, there is no doubt that Ancelotti would need him exactly as a right winger given all the losses.

He has a trophy with Real Madrid U19

Federico was part of the UEFA Youth League-winning squad led by Raul Gonzalez in 2019/20.

He has dual citizenship

Just like Mariano Diaz, Peter Federico has Dominican citizenship.

His place of birth, however, is Madrid and he has been part of the Whites' academy since 2015.

He has just signed new deal

Following his impressive campaigns with Real Madrid's youth teams, Federico signed a new contract that is going to keep him at least until 2024.
