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

Club career

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

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]
