Diego Parrado Olmos (born 28 April 2003) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder. Born in Spain, he has represented Bolivia at youth international level.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Madrid, Parrado began his career in the academy of Rayo Vallecano before joining amateur side Santa Ana.[2] He joined Real Madrid in 2017, and progressed through the academy until 2022, when he was sent to Real Madrid's third team, RSC Internacional.[3]

International career

[edit]

In March 2022, following good performances for the Real Madrid youth team, Parrado was reportedly close to a call up to the Spanish youth teams.[4] Though born in Spain, his father is Bolivian, and in August 2022 he went through the process of nationalising to be able to represent the Bolivian national team.[3][5] He made his debut for the Bolivian under-20 side in a 3–3 friendly draw with Venezuela.[1]

He was called up to the under-20 side again for the 2023 South American U-20 Championship, but did not feature as Bolivia were knocked out in the first round.[6]
