A former Premier League star has marked their 36th birthday by sharing throwback photo with fans on social media.
The attacking midfielder became a fan favourite at two clubs during an 11-year spell in the Premier League.
The childhood photo sees the star looking unrecognisable from their playing pomp, with the future Champions League winner writing 'Always together' with the snap showing him gripping a football.
His senior career took off at Valencia after coming through the youth system at Real Oviedo and Real Madrid.
The midfielder was part of Spain's World Cup winning squad in 2010, before moving to the Premier League the following year in a £23.5million move to Chelsea.
