“Now I’m Goku” – Joan Roman, former star of Man City...

The Spanish winger announced the change on social media and has asked people to respect his decision

Former Manchester City youth winger Joan Roman has changed his name to Goku, the main character in the Japanese manga and anime series Dragon Ball.

The 27-year-old, who currently plays for Polish second division club Miedz Legnica, has already added his new name to his social media profiles and asked people to “respect” his decision. The name better reflects his personality and attitude to life.

“I’m grateful to Joan for what I’ve lived, for all the positive things he left me, but now I’m Goku,” he continued Instagram.

“I just ask for your respect, as so many people show me. Always in motion, always forward. ”

Dragon Ball is one of the most successful Japanese media franchises of all time. His manga series are sold in more than 40 countries, and anime series have aired in more than 80 countries since the early 1980s.

It tells the story of Goku from childhood to adulthood as he trains in martial arts and explores the world in search of the seven magical balls known as Dragon Balls.

“I chose this name because I feel like I identify with what it represents to me: perseverance, empathy, growth in the face of obstacles, light and certainty,” he added.

Roman is in his second term with Miedz Legnica after spending a brief stint with Greek team Panetolikos last season. He has made an impressive start to the new season, scoring three goals in three assists in his first five games.

He began his youth career with Santes Creus in his native Catalonia before working at the Espanyol and Manchester City Academies.

The winger returned to Spain in 2012 at the age of 19 with Barcelona B, playing 70 games in three seasons for the club, including on loan at Villarreal.

He then moved to the Portuguese team Braga in 2015 and has had a nomadic career since then. He had loans with Nacional and Slask Wroclaw and a year-long stay with AEL Limassol before moving to Miedz Legnica for the first time in early 2019.
