Born on June 29, 2003, in Stourbridge, England, he began his career at Birmingham City, becoming their youngest ever first-team player at 16 years and 38 days. He quickly gained global attention for his technical ability, tactical intelligence, and leadership, leading to a high-profile transfer to Borussia Dortmund in 2020, and later to Real Madrid in 2023, where he won the UEFA Champions League and La Liga in his first season [1][2][3]

Collector notes

Condition. Since this card variant (#1297) is unverified, common flaws include misaligned printing, ink smudges, or unofficial paper stock. For verified Full Art cards (e.g., #19 Gold), check for edge wear, surface scratches, and centering. Gold cards often show scratches under light [1][2]

Storage. Store in a rigid, non-PVC card sleeve, place inside a top-loader, and keep in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. For Full Art or Foil cards, use anti-static bags to prevent moisture damage [1][2]

Authenticity. Unofficial cards like #1297 may lack proper publisher logos, holograms, or copyright text. Verify through official Panini or Topps databases. Certified cards (e.g., graded, Beckett) include serial numbers and tamper-evident seals. Missing these suggests a fake or reprint [1][2]
