Osama Vinladen Jiménez López (born 7 October 2002) is a professional Peruvian footballer who plays as a midfielder for Unión Comercio in the Peruvian Primera División.
Club career
Vinladen made his professional debut for Unión Comercio on 30 May 2018 against Universidad San Martín when he entered the game as a substitute in the 87th minute. The match ended in a 0–0 draw.[1]
International career
Vinladen was part of the Peru U-15 squad that participated in the 2017 South American U-15 Championship.[2]
Personal life
Vinladen is named after al-Qaeda founder, Osama bin Laden. He has a brother named Sadam Huseín after Saddam Hussein, as well as a younger sister. Had his parents had a third son, his father wished to name him George Bush after the former US President George W. Bush. When Vinladen and his partner welcomed their child, Santiago, his father again wished for the child to be named George Bush.[3]
Vinladen had previously contemplated changing his name, but he claims that he has grown accustomed to it over time. He does not believe his name to be problematic, citing Peruvian footballer, Hitler Alba Sánchez, and Brazilian footballer, Marx Lenin, as other figures in the sport with similarly controversial names.[3]
