Jü Ramm Damm Biography

Jürgen Damm was born on November 7, 1992 in the coastal town of Tuxpan, state of Veracruz, Mexico. He is of German descent on his paternal grandfather’s side and therefore holds a German passport.

At age two, Damm and her family moved to Toronto.Canada, due to the nature of her father’s job. But the family returned to Mexico after two years and settled in Guadalajara. Despite his interest in football, his father believed in the importance of education and because of this he was not allowed to join any Mexican football club until he was 17 years old.

Soccer career

Damm started his football career in 2011 after being scouted by Magdaleno Mercado (a Mexican footballer who played for the country in the 1960s) and given the opportunity to try his hand at Atlas.

After staying with the team for six months without having the opportunity to play, he left and was transferred to play with the Estudiantes Tecos youth team.

He turned professional at 18 with the Tecos. His debut in Liga MX on March 25, 2012 was not successful as his team lost the match against Monterrey (4-0). Jürgen Damm stayed with the club for several seasons before moving to Pachuca the following year.

Between 2013 and 2014, Damm played regularly with Pachuca in the first season, appearing in every game. He scored his first career goal on October 20, 2013 against Guadalajara and progressed with his team to the final of the Clausura 2014 football season. He was injured in the second match against Monterrey at the start of the 2014 season with the Apertura. This kept him from playing 8 games but he returned full time the same year. He was part of the squad when Pachuca scored a goal against Municipal in the 2014 – 2015 CONCACAF Champions League.

The latest round of CONCACAF offered Damm and the Tigers team the chance to qualify for December’s FIFA Club World Cup. He made his senior debut on 28 March 2015 as an 84th-minute substitute against Ecuador, his first appearance for Mexico.

During an interview, Jürgen Damm said that it was his dream to play a World Cup in a European club with the Champions League. He trusts God to be able to realize his dream one day. According to his playing skills, Damm is more interested in perfecting his crossing and goal-striking.

Controversial

The Mexico international and Tigres winger was once snagged by police after escaping officers. According to the report, he was handcuffed and escorted out of the fried chicken restaurant in El Pollo Loco, after being found in the bathroom.

However, it turned out to be a huge misunderstanding as the talented footballer wasn’t sure it was the police who asked him to stand down.

In the club’s official statement, he wrote that he could not identify who it was and decided to hide somewhere. Fortunately, he was released because the authorities only wanted to check his car license.

On January 1, 2018, it was announced on official Club Tigres Twitter that Damm had suffered first-degree burns to the right side of his face and would be healed in two weeks.

It was unclear how he got the burn, but it had to do with fireworks. Damm later sent photos of his injuries to warn people of the dangers of using firecrackers.

According to him, it was a miracle that the injuries weren’t worse.
