Let's make this birthday one to remember.

34 years old (Born on November 07, 1990)

Happy Birthday, Daniel Ayala! From your early days at Liverpool, where you defended with youthful enthusiasm (and probably learned how to dodge Steven Gerrard's powerful shots in training), you've always been a rock-solid presence on the pitch. Your journey from Anfield to Middlesbrough has shown us all that loan spells can indeed lead to lasting love—who knew football could be so romantic?

At Middlesbrough, you've become a defensive legend, consistently delivering tackles sharper than birthday cake knives and headers more accurate than party invitations. Here's wishing you another year of clean sheets, epic clearances, and fewer yellow cards! Cheers!
