Jon Rahm gives his son brilliant & (possibly) football inspired name
As this is a football website, you may be wondering why on Earth we are reporting on Jon Rahm.
Rahm is one of the best golfers in the world, winning a host of major events since turning professional in 2016 and prior to that he was the top ranked golf amatuer for a record 60 weeks in a row.
So, what has he done to earn his very own article on 90min?
As well as being a world renowned golfer, Rahm is also a diehard Athletic Club fan, frequently posting about his beloved side on his social media. Recently, Bilbao favourite Aritz Aduriz gave him a signed shirt - but that is not what this article is about.
Instead, Rahm has caught our eye by christening his newborn with an absolutely stupendous, football inspired name. He announced the news of the birth of his son on Instagram, saying: "Kepa Cahill Rahm, was born 4/3/21 at 12:15am. Momma Kelley is doing great and recovering. Kepa is also in great health. He is 7.2 lb and 20.5inch, big boy from the Basque Country. Without a doubt the greatest day of my life!"
First and foremost, well done Jon for correctly recognising that having a child should be the best moment of your life. Gary Neville, who once said that winning a Premier League title was a better feeling than his children being born, could learn a thing or two from you.
Second, thank you for blessing us by gifting your son two strong footballing names. To be fair, no wonder an Athletic fan would want to thank Kepa Arrizabalaga by naming their child after him. Getting over £70m for a goalkeeper with hands as buttery as his is definitely cause for celebration.
Will Kepa take after his namesake Gary or Tim (Cahill) we wonder? Either way he is bound to be good in the air.
