Trivia[]
- According to 3109 Nichi Zenkiroku, Diaz played for Argentinos Juniors. However, this is wrong, since in chapter 99 of the original manga, Diaz stated that if Barbas managed to scout Tsubasa for his team (which happened to be Argentinos), then the two of them would become rivals, instead of teammates.
