Pablo Urdangarin, son of Infanta Cristina and Iñaki Urdangarin, is gaining popularity thanks to his outstanding handball career.
At 23 years old, Pablo has followed in the footsteps of his father, Iñaki, and has proven to be a talented player who is achieving great success in the sport.
This young man, nephew of King Felipe VI, has not stopped achieving successes that fill his parents with pride.
Pablo Urdangarin in the Spanish national handball team
Currently, Pablo is waiting to know if he will be selected to be part of the Spanish national handball team.
As reported by the Spanish portal ‘Vanitatis’, Pablo has had an exceptional performance in the University World Cup, which has put him in the sights of the Spanish Handball Federation.
From the federation, they have spoken highly of the grandson of the emeritus kings Juan Carlos and Sofia, highlighting his outstanding performance.
In fact, Pablo was named the Best Player of the World University Championship held in Antequera, thanks in part to being the top scorer of the tournament.
The Instagram of the Royal Spanish Handball Federation has dedicated a publication to Pablo, highlighting his achievements with several photos that have received more than 5,700 ‘likes’ and numerous congratulatory comments.
This recognition adds to the excellent season he has had with his team, Granollers, which makes the possibility of being signed by the Spanish senior team more and more real.
If Pablo manages to join the prestigious national team, he will follow in his father’s footsteps more than ever.
Iñaki Urdangarin, a former national team player, participated in three Olympic Games and several international competitions, winning numerous medals. However, Iñaki gave up handball largely due to his marriage to Infanta Cristina and his roles within the royal family.
Seeing his son reach the national team would be a great joy for Iñaki Urdangarin, who has supported Pablo in numerous matches, sharing valuable advice and comments.
Infanta Cristina, Pablo’s mother, has also shown herself to be a great supporter of her son. Although she does not usually appear at public events, she always finds time to attend Pablo’s matches, where she has been seen nervous but enthusiastic from the stands.
Also, Johanna Zott, Pablo’s girlfriend, is a faithful follower of his matches and has been seen in the stands on several occasions, showing complicity with the infanta Cristina. Even Johanna’s mother has attended some matches.
If Pablo is selected for the national team, there is no doubt that the whole family will gather to support him in this significant achievement that seems closer and closer.
