Life Journey

Cristian Romero Biography portrays his Childhood Story, Early Life, Family, Lifestyle, Parents (Quito and Rosa), Wife (Karen Cavaller), Net Worth, and Personal Life.

We present you with the center-back’s life story, from his early days to when he became a household name. Take a look at Cristian Romero’s boyhood to adulthood gallery – a perfect summary of his life story. He is one of the best Argentine Defenders in recent years, along with Lisandro Martinez.

In addition, we know of Romero’s record-breaking goal after 130 seconds, the fastest goal ever for Argentina in a professional match. Cristian Romero achieved this feat in June 2021, surpassing Diego Maradona’s record, but many fans are only familiar with a fragment of his biography. So without further ado, let’s begin.

The first thing you need to know about him is that he has the nickname Cuti. A child of Quito and Rosa Romero was born on the 27th of April 1998 in Córdoba, Argentina.

The young man had a deep love for football and aspired to excel as a professional like Rodrigo De Paul. Cuti watched Argentina win the 2004 Olympics as a child. The young lad became motivated by this feat to serve his country through sports someday.

The Early Years And Growing Up

His parents raised his boy in Villa Rivadavia, a neighborhood in the extreme south of Cordoba. Since his childhood, he was watched over by his two elder siblings.

Romero ran around the dirty street, which was characterized by many humble houses back then. Seeing children playing football, he convinces himself to join them. In his neighborhood, it was the usual way of life for kids.

Due to his excellent skills and reputation, he never had difficulty belonging to a team. Despite his success in soccer, the center-back never forgot the beginning of his journey. In the area where he grew up, he opened a cafeteria. The cafeteria is now a football school with over 300 boys as I write this biography.

Background Information About The Family

His place of birth was impoverished, so many households lived an average life without thinking much about luxury. Romero was raised in a relatively poor family.

In spite of this, he was quite cheerful and appreciated every single meal he was given. He enjoyed eating some of his favorite meals during the different festivity periods, as most kids do.

In fact, he lived with hunger during his childhood. Nevertheless, he considers the memory of surviving every phase of his life with a united family priceless.

Origins Of The Family

He is a national of Argentina because he was born there. The early Spanish colonial governor named his place of origin after Cordoba in Spain.

Cristian Romero may have the Italian Argentine and Spanish ethnicity, the largest ethnic group in Cordoba. He comes from the capital of Argentina’s second most populous province. Over 1.3 million people live in Cordoba, according to the reports.

Educational Background

His parents wanted him to go to school and become a successful career person afterward. As a result, they made sure Romero studied hard like his older siblings. Cuti, however, never forgot to bring his sporting gear to school.

During break time, he was always aware of the bell that signals the start of the break. Romero would play soccer with other kids immediately after the bell rang.

The Story Of Football

When his country won the 2004 Olympics, the center-back witnessed the beauty and joy of winning a national trophy. Someday, he would like to play for Argentina as a professional footballer.

When Romero turned eight, he walked up to his parents to reaffirm his desire to play soccer professionally. Upon hearing his words, his parents were surprised at his confidence in his athletic abilities. They also thought of ways to help their son succeed in the game, regardless of the cost.

Career Development In The Early Years

In 2014, Cuti’s parents enrolled him in the Belgrano sports club after he played street soccer. As a junior, he trained hard with many talented kids who became his friends.

As Romero turned 18, he signed his first-ever football contract with Belgrano, realizing his dream. He accomplished an incredible feat that got his parents and family members to celebrate.

The Road To Fame

Between 2016 and 2018, the talented player made 19 appearances for Belgrano. It wasn’t long before his talent caught the attention of top-level scouts. Further, he was becoming the talk of the country as a member of Argentina’s U-20 national team.

Romero eventually joined Genoa of the Serie A. He played against world-class players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Paulo Dybala there. Even among veteran players, he became outstanding.

He performed beyond the expectations of his managers, of course. In no time at all, he had established himself as a prized jewel in Serie A, attracting the attention of Juventus.

Life Journey

Woodgram presents the full story of a football genius, better known as ‘The Wig’. Carlos Bacca’s Biography provides a comprehensive account of noteworthy events from his childhood until the present.

In the analysis, a number of OFF-Pitch facts (little known about him) are revealed, including his life before fame, his family background, his romantic life, and other OFF-Pitch aspects of his life. Despite his prolific goalscoring record, few are aware of Carlos Bacca’s biography, which is an interesting read. Let us begin now without further ado.

Carlos Bacca Childhood Life And Family Background

To begin with, Carlos Arturo Bacca Ahumada was born on the 8th of September 1986 in Puerto, Colombia. At the time of Carlos’ birth, his father, Gilberto Bacca, was a fisherman and his mother, Eloisa Ahumada, was involved in the sale of fish.

Having grown up in Puerto, Carlos had a challenging start to life as a result of his parents’ poverty. In order to ensure the welfare of his family, he had to accompany his father fishing in order to fulfill his quota.

In spite of Gilberto’s recognition of Young Bacca’s early sense of responsibility, he wanted him to focus on football, a sport he had a natural affinity for in his childhood. On the other hand, Carlos’ mother observed his affinity for football months before he took his first steps. In an interview conducted 28 years later, she recalled how destiny beckoned to her son:

Since he was three, he was obsessed with the ball (soccer). We bought him cars, but he refused to use them.

Being aware of what the future held for their child was essential, as was positioning him so that opportunity met preparedness. Consequently, they enrolled him in school, but Carlos always found a way to devote the majority of his time to football.

How Did Carlos Bacca Enter And Make His Identity In The World Of Football?

When Carlos Bacca was nine, his parents enrolled him in a local football academy. In the academy, Carlos’ dedication to football caught the attention of his instructor, Rafael Reyes, who described Carlos’ passion for the game years later:

He trained himself by staying with a couple of other kids and doing head crosses and scissors kicks.

As Carlos’ passion grew for the next seven years, he produced remarkable results that led him to be accepted into Atlético Junior in 2006. There was also Luis Diaz who played there. His parents, who had always wanted the best for their son, were delighted with the move.

Atlético Junior’s youth team foray did not go as well as expected for the forward. In order to address his rapidly diminishing finances, he began working as a bus driver assistant (a side job).

Also, he had to take care of his parents, who had done enough to support him. After a period of time, he returned to fishing when things became difficult. Over the following years, he was loaned to several clubs, including Barranquilla FC and Minervén, where he established himself as one of the top strikers in the region.

His return to Atlético Junior resulted in him being promoted to the first team. He was also the highest goal scorer in the 2009 Copa Colombia, as well as the highest goal scorer in the 2010 and 2011 Category Primera A, giving Atlético Junior its sixth and seventh Colombian title. As they say, the rest is history.

Carlos Bacca’s Wife – Shariya Santiago

Due to his religious disposition, Carlos has not been involved in previous relationships. This may also explain why, after his first relationship, he married his wife Shariya Santiago in 2010.

The couples did not take photographs at their weddings, but they do not hesitate to take photographs when they are out and about. Considering the football genius’s sheer will and determination, it is not surprising that he has remained married for eight years without controversy.

He has two children, a daughter, Karla Valentina Bacca, and a son, Carlos Daniel Bacca.

Facts About Carlos Bacca

Here are a few things you probably didn’t know about Carlos Bacca.

Carlos Bacca’s Aggression Against Neymar

At the end of the Brazil-Colombia Copa América game in 2015, Carlos’ parents seemed to have raised him in a disciplined manner.

After Brazil’s 1-0 loss to Colombia, Neymar attempted to headbutt Jeison Murillo (for reasons best known to him). In response to Neymar’s unruly behavior, Carlos Pushed him down.

Later, Carlos’ mother reacted to the brawl in a way that revealed a lot about his upbringing. First, she sided with Carlos:

“I felt angry and helpless. If I had been in the stadium, I would have taken off my heels and hit Neymar; many women would have joined me.”

Carlos Bacca’s Nickname

Since his childhood, Carlos Bacca has been known by a funny nickname. Here is what he has to say about his strange nickname:

It is my nickname ‘El Peluca’ (The Wig). My head was full of hair when I was a child. If you referred to me as Carlos in my town, no one would know it’s me, but if you asked for “El Peluca,” everyone would point you to me.”

Personality And Religion

In the face of adversity, Barca demonstrates the virtues of humility, patience, and steadfastness.

Initially, football did not present me with opportunities. I played and played, but the opportunity was not forthcoming.

A Colombian who played his first professional game at the age of 23 never forgets the humble beginnings that led him to the position he holds today.

As for my debut, I was booed when I was introduced. No one knew who I was, but the first two balls I touched were goals, which forever changed the course of my life.

It is my belief that God exists and I love him with all my heart. He allowed me the opportunity to play soccer and for that, each time I score, I raise my arms to the heavens.”

As a result of his footballing skills, he has achieved a great deal in life. As a forward, he is well known for his renowned pace, aggression, eye for goal, and determination. Carlos leads a fine and simple lifestyle without any sense of pride. His desire to join the Italian club, Roma, is indicative of his religious tolerance, as was the case with Yerry Mina.

His only requirement was to be close to the Pope despite belonging to a different religious denomination (Evangelical Christian Faith).

• In addition to his use of tricks and feints, such as the rabona, he has also scored some spectacular goals using tricks and feints. Moreover, he is adept at finishing with both his head and feet in the air.
• As a result of his time at Sevilla under manager Unai Emery, Bacca enhanced his mentality, work rate, and defensive skills.
• During his time with Milan, Bacca suffered from a difficult relationship with his manager Vincenzo Montella due to his low defensive and creative contributions, as well as his limited ability to move off the ball.
• The media praised Bacca’s goalscoring record, ability to make attacking runs, and his goal-per-minute ratio at the club, often requiring fewer touches and opportunities to score.
• However, despite his ability to score and finish goals, some of his performances were criticized for the overall quality of his performances.
