Family legacy has always been important in every corner of the Earth, so hearing that children continued their fathers’ business or succeeded their “old men’s” profession is not strange, as those cases are not rare. The same goes for sports, as numerous athletes became successful after following in their parents’ or siblings’ footsteps.8 brothers featuring in the Football Kenya Federation Premier League [LIST]The sports world has numerous examples of two siblings becoming superstars. In the NBA, Steph and Seth Curry, Brook and Robin Lopez, and Pau and Marc Gasol. In tennis, Serena and Venus Williams, John and Patrick McEnroe, Bob and Mike Bryan, and Marat Safin and Dinara Safina. Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko were amazing boxers, while Peyton and Eli Manning were top-notch NFL quarterbacks. Finally, in football, Gary and Phil Neville, Andre and Jordan Ayew, and Kevin-Prince and Jerome Boateng. And these are only some of the cases.##NAJAVA_MECA_8763599##Basketball also offered examples of three (Justin, Jrue, and Aaron Holiday) or even four (Giannis, Kostas, Thanasis, and Alex Antetokounmpo) brothers playing professionally. But have you ever seen four brothers in professional football? We hardly think so.Hence, meet the four Kalulu brothers – of Congolese descent – who are all professional football players representing respectable European sides. You must have heard of the most popular among them, the 24-year-old Pierre, who’s currently wearing a Juventus jersey on loan from AC Milan in Serie A.📝 𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗘: Joseph Kalulu has just signed his first professional contract at Pau FC. 🇫🇷🇨🇩That means all 4 of the Kalulu brothers are now professional footballers. 👏 pic.twitter.com/MzZHciFAEn— Transfer News Live (@DeadlineDayLive) March 6, 2025 The oldest, Aldo, made his first football steps with the French Lyon – just like all the brothers – and, following spells with other sides from his homeland like Rennes and Sochaux, the English Swansea, and the Swiss Basel, ended up at the Serbian giants and 1966 European Cup (UCL precursor) runners-up, Partizan Belgrade.The 27-year-old Gedeon and the seven years younger (and the youngest among the Kalulus) Joseph are currently representing Ligue 2 clubs, Lorient and Pau, respectively.##EDITORS_CHOICE##Interestingly, while Pierre opted to represent France on the international level (U-21 and Olympic teams for now), Aldo and Gedeon both pledged allegiance to DR Congo, collecting 21 appearances with the senior squad combined. Finally, even more fascinating is the fact that each of the four Kalulu brothers plays in a different position – Pierre is a centre-back, Gedeon and Joseph are right and left backs, respectively, while Aldo is the only offensive player, as he’s an attacking midfielder.
