Joselu's career is defined by an extraordinary late-career surge. At 34, he became a Champions League winner and a European champion with Spain, achievements that few journeyman strikers ever reach. His two goals in the 2024 Champions League semifinal are among the most dramatic in the competition's history, earning him a permanent place in Real Madrid lore. He also holds the distinction of being one of the oldest Spanish international debutants, yet he made every cap count, scoring crucial goals in the Nations League final and Euro 2024 qualifiers.
