Around the world with the Kuranyi family: When one can play for five national teams!

Former Stuttgart, Schalke, Dynamo Moscow, and Hoffenheim forward and German international Kevin Kuranyi has had an interesting family situation. He was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to a German father of Hungarian descent and a Panamanian mother with close connections to France. Ultimately, he had four national teams to choose from: Brazil, Hungary, Panama, and Germany, and he opted to represent Die Mannschaft.Karlo Kuranyi, the son of former German international Kevin Kuranyi, had the option to represent Croatia, as his mother is Croatian, but he opted for Panama, the country of his father’s roots.Karlo could also have played for Germany, Brazil, and Hungary through his father. pic.twitter.com/GGzNeJ894q— 🇭🇷 (@TheCroatianLad) December 16, 2024 Kevin’s 19-year-old son Karlo now has even more alternatives – as many as five! Namely, the youngster “inherited” Brazil, Hungary, and Panama from his father, he was born in Germany so that is another possibility, while his mother is Croatian.It took Marco Reus 35 years and move to another continent to win first league title everHowever, despite various options, Karlo seems to have chosen the “weakest,” or at least the least popular national team, as he allegedly wants to internationally represent Panama, the homeland of his grandmother. Still, regardless of what the young Karlo decides, the Kuranyi family remains an intriguing example of genetic recombination and probably the most unique one in football.##NAJAVA_MECA_8580157##
