Few of us in work have spent the day trying to think of as many players as we can with double-barrelled names.

Thought i'd bring it on here to see how many yous could get.

(Might need to be moved to off-topic)

These are not actually double-barrelled. Dito Yaya & Kolo, Touré is the only family name. Same with Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.

Full spanish names include the paternal & maternal family name, but usually only one is picked.

David Josué Jiménez Silva -> David Silva
Fernando José Torres Sanz -> Fernando Torres
etc

How about Courtney Meppen-Walter?
