Real Madrid Galatico Vini Junior is a big fan of West Ham’s Lucas Paqueta.
The Brazilian winger sent the Hammers’ number 10 a one-word message of admiration following West Ham’s 5-0 Europa League thrashing over SC Freiburg on Thursday night.
Shortly after Thursday night’s full-time whistle, Paqueta made a celebration post on his personal social media channels with the caption: “Glory and honour to you Jesus! Classified, the dream continues.”
And among fans commenting on the Brazilian playmaker’s post was Madrid’s Vini Junior, who simply said: “Craque” which, when directly translated to English, reads: “ace” or “expert”. The phrase is a popular term in South America used to describe a ‘star footballer’.
