Prince [[Jorge Jiménez Torres]] of Hanover and Spain (Jorge Adrian Jiménez Torres; born 16 February 1987) is the Prince in the Kingdom of Hanover and the Prince of Spain. He ascended the throne on 30 June 2016 upon the abdication of his father from the House of Jiménez. He is six in line of succession to the throne in Spain after the King of Spain respectively, and third in line of succession in the Kingdom of Hanover. 

==Early Life==
He was born in North-Rhine Westphalia in a small town Tützpatz. He is of [[Basque]], [[French]] and [[German]] descent and grew up in the Caribbean and United States since he was born. His father Francisco Jiménez Benitez and mother Marilyn Torres Santiago sent him to [[Buenos Aires]], [[Argentina]] at a young age to play football in three different seasons until he achieved contracts with youth teams. Later on, his father sent him to Spain to play with [[Real Madrid Castilla]] so he could develop further skills in the Spanish League in which he succeeded in different seasons. However, on one hand he considers himself Latino American as been raised in United States in a Latin American community and on the other hand, he is very keen to his Jewish European roots after many trips to European countries as a child and adult in which he rediscovered his Jewish roots. In the past years he has been involved in pro Israeli rallies, and also he is been very close to his German counterparts in Germany. However, he considers himself Latino American as a consequence of being raised in United States in a Latin American community but European because he was born in [[Europe]].

==Club career==
Jorge Jiménez Torres made his debut as a youth in [[Estudiantes de La Plata]]. In Estudiantes he played 47 matches and scored 13 goals with 28 assists. Then he was transferred to play in [[Club Atlético Banfield]] where he played 81 matches and scored 19 goals with 37 assists. He played a season in [[Boca Juniors]] sub-23 where had a good season and scored 7 goals, 10 assists in 30 matches. Then he returned back to [[Spain]] and after successful tryouts in [[Spain]] he went to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fegDDS1fw4 play in [[Greece]] at different tournaments with] [[PAOK FC]] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azRV5BJWYOo and shortly after was signed to] [[GNK Dinamo Zagreb]] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puH5gWH1jfA as a professional] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSkqNi1HXa8 football player]. In June 16 he was offered a contract in [[La Liga]] at [[Real Madrid CF]] after he was on a recess for two years. He left retirement after three years without playing football as a consequence of a fractured knee. 

Dr. Henning Madry claimed that therapy: The treatment depends on the causes and how advanced the fracture is. Physiotherapy is an important component and there are also various ways to reduce pain (physical therapy, medication, acupuncture, etc.). The assumption that the joints wear out due to movement is wrong. Rather, sports that are anaerobic or gentle on the joints (e.g. cycling, swimming, Nordic walking) is important in order to keep the joints flexible, relieve pain and strengthen the muscles. Apart from that, well-fitting shoes with a cushioning sole can provide relief until fully recovered. In this case, you can see the recovery after he started to play again because he did not complained no more about any pain on his knee being 100% recovered.

Thereafter, went to Spain for therapy and after recovery he was [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHbIun2BMRk signed to] [[Real Madrid Castilla]] and debuted in the first team and played against [[Cádiz CF]] where he scored 2 goals and 7 assists. He played 6 matches in [[Villarreal CF]] in 2010 as a visiting player and was recalled back to [[Real Madrid Castilla]]. When he returned to [[Real Madrid Castilla]] he scored 10 goals in 16 matches with 8 assists. He was signed for one season at [[Bayern Munich]] in 2018 and scored 12 goals, 15 assists in 38 matches. In 2019, he was loaned to [https://vimeo.com/567260363 FC Barcelona] and played 19 matches with 6 goals and 13 assists. [[Real Madrid CF]] tried to hire him as a player but once talks failed about fundamental agreement of the defender with Bayern Munich and accorded to a fixed transfer fee from €285 million euros to €88 million euros said FC Bayern in a mandatory announcement. Real Madrid board have agreed to the contract valid until 30 June 2027, however he decided to go separate ways and bought 15% shares of [[Bayern Munich]] and Bayer Leverkusen with 15% in both organizations after he rejected [[Bayern Munich]] contracts and [[GNK Dinamo Zagreb]] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SNbtcI82NU contracts] as a player.

He subsequently became under for the club's under-23, in the B team, and then first team, all within a single season. His short, strong legs allow him to succeed in bursts of acceleration while his quick feet enable him to retain control of the ball when dribbling at different speeds. Jimenez Torres [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHbIun2BMRk is the only player that runs faster without ball than he does with and without it.] Examples, can be found in videos of his plays at Real Madrid Castilla in 2009 where he can be seen running faster at same pace as well at PAOK FC [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fegDDS1fw4&t=17s videos faster and reach a goal.] He has has a lower centre of gravity than taller players, which gives him greater agility, due to his short stature allowing him to change direction more quickly and evade opposing tackles.
