Forgotten EFL star, 21, wins major trophy with Euro giants as hardly anybody notices
FORGOTTEN Southampton star Carlos Alcaraz has won the first trophy of his career.
The midfielder has spent the second half of the season on loan at Juventus following a January loan move.
But he has been quickly forgotten about by fans, who were shocked to see Alcaraz lift the Coppa Italia with Juventus.
Alcaraz, 21, has made 10 appearances for the Old Lady including two in the cup, but was left on the bench for the final win over Atalanta.
So it is little surprise some supporters were shocked when they were reminded he is a Juventus player.
One fan reacted saying: “I didn’t even remember that he was at Juventus.”
Another added: “When did this boy arrive at Juve?”
A third wrote: “Not even he knew he was at Juventus.”
And another commented: “Like this one was at Juve.”
Southampton demanded £25million to sell Alcaraz last summer but no clubs met their asking price.
