⚽ Despite leaving Spain years ago, María García-Mella Cid continued to follow Real Madrid through some of their biggest moments. The 'wildest soccer mom' is back in Spain for good and enjoying every moment.
She didn’t get many chances to watch Madrid play back in the United States, and at first could only follow the team’s matches through online radio stations. She made it to some of the friendly games the Spanish powerhouse played there, including the 2018 match in Miami in which García-Mella and her family were invited onto the field to meet the Madrid players.
Her husband, Arturo Cid, was on board when they decided to move to Madrid with Alejandro, their 15-year-old daughter Andrea, and their dog Luna, a black giant schnauzer. Along with them came the dozens of Real Madid jerseys and books and magazines that García-Mella has collected, many filled with autographs by club officials and players, including Iván Zamorano, David Beckham and Luka Modric, her favorite Madrid player now.
Both Cid and García-Mella are psychotherapists and have been able to work with their patients from the U.S. remotely. It didn’t take long after she arrived in Spain as a kid for her love of Real Madrid to blossom. It was watching a game with her older brother in the seating section of Madrid’s most hardcore fans that it all started.
