Diego Forlan Corazzo comes from a long line of soccer players, both his father and grandfather were distinguished Players, who represented Uruguay in the 1966 and 1974 world cups.  He is considered to be one of the finest players Uruguay has ever produced.

Diego’s rise to stardom began at Independente an argentine football club his grandfather played for. Raising through the youth team and making into the first team as a striker. His great ability in front of the opposition’s 18 yard box earned him a transfer to global club Manchester United. Although he showed glimpses of brilliance at times, his career in Manchester united did not go as well as he hoped ,he did win the premiere league in 2003 ,and an FA cup in 2004 but ,several personal differences with then united manager Sir Alex Ferguson ,cut Diego’s England stay short ,and resulted in him being transferred to Spanish Club Villa Real.
