La Liga is home to some of the most recognisable superstars on the planet.
But could you identify them if we were able to set the clocks back on them just a touch?
Below are are six stars from the Spanish top flight, long before they hit the big time. How many can you recognise?
1.
Playing for Athletic Bilbao, this striker was linked with a move to Manchester United this summer.
That was enough for his club to offer him a new deal, and earlier this month he signed a nine-year deal, with a release clause of £125m. He is, of course...
Inaki Williams
2.
This defender has lifted countless trophies with both Real Madrid and Spain, and has made some sizable contributions to those victories thanks to his happy knack of scoring important goals.
Set to star in his own documentary which is due out on Amazon Prime later next month, he is, of course...
Sergio Ramos
3.
Back in Sevilla colours after a stint with Manchester City, this 33-year-old has 38 Spain caps to his name.
With his piercing blue eyes not having changed since his younger years, it isn't too difficult to distinguish this young buck. He is, of course...
Jesus Navas
4.
Having had a big hand in one of the biggest stories of last season, this midfielder has swapped Ajax for Barcelona following their incredible Champions League run.
Costing the Spanish champions a cool £65million, he'll be hoping for an upturn in fortunes following their opening day defeat by Athletic Bilbao. He is, of course...
Frenkie de Jong
5.
An antiquated picture but this 38-year-old is still more than holding his own at the top of Spanish football.
Having represented five clubs across two decades throughout his career, this winger is back where it all began in Betis and still playing a major role. He is, of course...
Joaquin
6.
Back in Spain with Atletico Madrid, this striker endured something of a torrid time during his ill-fated spell at Chelsea.
Still only 26 though, there is ample opportunity for him to add to his 31 Spain caps and personal medal haul of two La Liga titles and two Champions League trophies while at Real Madrid. He is, of course...
Alvaro Morata
