What's with Saul Niguez's #8 Atletico Madrid jersey? Antoine Griezmann could be the standout name in the Atletico Madrid team, but it seems Saul is taking all the attention!
After Fast and Furious 8 (Fate of the Furious) stars Vin Diesel and Charlize Theron, Hollywood heartthrob Tom Cruise is the latest to be presented with the Spanish midfielder's jersey. What's with the Hollywood's fascination with La Liga midfielders really, we ask!

Mission Impossible man Cruise was present along with Annabelle Wallis and Sofie Boutella, his co-stars from the upcoming movie The Mummy (2017), directed by Alex Kurtzman.
As a part of the film's promotional, Cruise was given a first-hand view of the Wanda Metropolitano (Estadio La Peineta), the new 67,703-capacity ground where Atletico Madrid will play their matches from the 2017-18 football season.
Niguez and Atletico Madrid club president Enrique Cerezo played the role of the guides.

"It will be a really magnificent stadium and I can't wait to watch them come back and play here now," said Cruise.
"I was invited and I can't wait to see it with all the screens and all the fans here because there's nothing like really watching a football match here in Spain."
