Of Noé Ela many notes stand out. One of them, age. Despite his 185 centimeters and his size, the Madrilenian is 18 years old, although in April he will be 19. He is one of the players who has joined the club of red and white who debuted when they reached the age of majority. The list, which includes five young people, is still led by Íñigo Zubiri.
The current Calahorra player had a similar trajectory to Ela. He made his debut in the first team in the League on November 22, 2012, when he was 18 years, 4 months and 4 days old. That season he played two games. The first, against Eibar in Las Gaunas. One minute. The second, the last of the season, in Sestao.
The second place on that list is occupied by a player who was born in Logroño: Álvaro Gómez. For a time, the march that Zubiri has was his, since he debuted with the first team on October 11, 2009, in the first games in the history of UD Logroñés. He played the ninety minutes against Barcelona B in the game that the red and white lost at home (0-1). He repeated against Sporting Mahonés, before concluding the first round. His age: 18 years, 4 months and 27 days, twenty-three older than Zubiri.
The third youngest player to debut was Noé Ela, at the age of 18 years, 8 months and 21 days. There are still two more, although none of them rose from the lower categories of the entity.
This list includes Sergio Reguilón, also from Madrid, who lived two stages at UD Logroñés before returning to Real Madrid, reaching full international status and signing for Tottenham. Reguilón debuted with the red and white jersey at the age of 18 years, 8 months and 21 days. He did it on August 23, 2015, against Compostela. The UDL won 3-0.
And the fifth was the Canarian Víctor Socorro, whose passage through the Riojan team was not accompanied by a great role. Socorro played nine games in the year of promotion to Second, on loan from Valladolid. He debuted on September 29, 2019, in the meeting between UD Logroñés and Tudelano, with 18 years, 11 months and 4 days.
