#7 Giovani Dos Santos – Username: oficialgio

Not quite as child-friendly a feed as this picture might suggest

Having played for Barcelona as a teenager and been named among the “Top 50 most exciting teen footballers” by World Soccer Magazine, Dos Santos’ career hasn’t quite taken shape the way many would have predicted.

Having failed to cement a spot at Tottenham in spite of being sent out on loan spells to prove himself, Dos Santos seems to be finally feeling at home with LA Galaxy. Being a regular fixture in the Mexican national team as well, his profile features star footballers and a behind-the-scenes look at the world of football. Definitely, an exciting player to follow.
