Fernando Torres

Spanish footballer, Fernando Torres, who currently plays for Japanese side, Sagan Tosu, has clocked 35.

Torres, who scored a famous last-minute winning goal against Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final in 2012, clocked 35 on Wednesday.

El Nino, as he is fondly called, is remembered mostly for his exploits at Liverpool which he joined in 2007 for a then club record transfer fee.

He went on to become the fastest player in Liverpool history to score 50 league goals.

In his first full season after signing for Chelsea in January 2011, Torres won the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League.

His goal scoring exploits at the 2012 European Championship earned him the golden boot.

He remains Spain’s third-highest goalscorer of all-time after David Villa and Raul.
