Ex-Arsenal and Chelsea star Cesc Fabregas' stepson Joseph Taktouk signs for LaLiga club Rayo Vallecano

CESC FABREGAS' stepson Joseph Taktouk has joined LaLiga new boys Rayo Vallecano.

It's the teenager's first leap in the tough task of emulating former Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea midfielder Fabregas.


And Taktouk, 17, is revelling in the opportunity given him by Madrid's third biggest club.

His mum is model and Fabregas' partner Daniela Semaan.

And alongside photos of himself signing, he posted the words: "God is great. 

"Proud and very happy day for signing with Rayo Vallecano.

"It has been a long journey to get here and there is much more to go.

"A big thank you to my family for helping me achieve this."

Lebanese businessman Elie Taktouk is Joseph's biological father.

And Fabregas too quickly joined in the online praise for Taktouk Junior.
