Vanja Milinković-Savić

I'll be honest — when I first heard the name Vanja Milinković-Savić I assumed it had to be Sergej's relative, and sure enough, he's the younger brother, which means this family just casually produced two professional footballers at the highest level. Vanja is a Serbian goalkeeper who stands 202 cm tall and was born in Ourense, Spain — a quiet Galician city that feels like an unlikely birthplace for a guy guarding the net for Napoli in Serie A. There's something quietly compelling about a keeper of that size: he doesn't need to be flashy, he just fills the goal. He's still in his mid-to-late twenties, coming into his prime, and wearing a Serbia shirt internationally — the kind of player who might not have household-name recognition yet outside hardcore football circles, but absolutely should.
