Player Bio
Born in Elche, Spain, he began his prospects as a footballer at the academy of Real Madrid in 2010 as an 11-year old. In 2008 he switched to cross city rivals Atlético Madrid to complete the later phase of his development. After impressing for Atléti’s reserves, the midfielder was given his debut for the Los Rojiblancos on 8 March 2012, playing in the dying minutes of a UEFA Europe League fixture against Besiktas JK. On 21 April 2013, he made his La Liga vow, as Atléti overcame Sevilla 1-0. He would endear himself to the Los Colchoneros faithful on 7 February 2015, scoring in an eventual 4-0 victory over bitter foes Real Madrid. His impressive display in the Madrid derby would serve as a catapult for the midfielder to establish himself in Diego Simeone’s robust midfield setup. The box-to-box midfield dynamo cemented his place in Atléti’s midfield, featuring in 257 competitive fixtures, scoring 34 goals on top of providing 18 assists for his teammates. El Motor’s crowning moment in a Los Rojiblancos shirt came against German opposition Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the 2015/16 UEFA Champions League; an individual piece of brilliance took him past the entire Bayern defence, before cooly slotting home past Manuel Neuer to give Atléti the lead and the only goal of the match. His contributions has led Atlético Madrid to great recent success; the Los Colchoneros captured the 2017/18 UEFA Europa League as well as the 2018 UEFA Super Cup.
