Only 17, he is considered Europe’s next big thing and his exploits at the U18 European Championship Men and with his club DKV Joventut so far this season in Spain is testament to that. National team coach Pepu Hernandez has recently praised Rubio and included him the preliminary line-up for the Beijing Olympics.
