Real Madrid have secured the signing of promising young striker Fran Santamara from CD Castelln, with the 17-year-old set to join the clubs academy next season.Santamara departs his hometown club after spending the majority of his development years there, bringing an end to an eight-year spell in which he steadily rose through the ranks and established himself as one of the standout talents in Spanish youth football.The forward arrives in Madrid off the back of an impressive campaign, scoring 15 goals across 32 appearances. Despite being a second-year youth player, Santamara split his time between Castellns Juvenil A side and the B team, adapting seamlessly to higher levels of competition.He found the net 13 times in just 17 matches in the Divisin de Honor, Spains top youth league, while also contributing two goals in 15 appearances for Castelln B in the Segunda Federacin. His performances not only made him one of the most productive attackers in his category, but also underlined his ability to compete against older opposition.Standing at 1.85 meters and comfortable with both feet, Santamara has built a reputation as a well-rounded striker with a natural eye for goal. His rapid development did not go unnoticed, as he progressed from youth football into training with the reserve side, signaling his readiness for the next step.The move to Real Madrid represents a major milestone in his career, with Santamara becoming the most expensive youth sale in Castellns history. He will now continue his development at Valdebebas, joining La Fbrica as part of the clubs long-term investment in emerging talent.Castelln confirmed the transfer with a statement thanking the player for his dedication and professionalism throughout his time at the club, while wishing him success in the next chapter of his career.Santamara also shared an emotional farewell message, reflecting on his journey and the impact of his boyhood club.The day I never imagined has arrived, he wrote. Ive spent eight years at the club of my life, and now I say goodbye to Castellna place where Ive grown not only as a player, but as a person.He went on to thank his family, coaches, and teammates for their support over the years, emphasizing the values of humility and hard work that shaped his development.I will always be a Castelln fan, he added.

Donald Trump has declared his enthusiasm for watching Rory McIlroy compete at his Florida venue during the 2026 Cadillac Miami Championship, though the US president may find himself disappointed.Trump was among the earliest prominent voices beyond the golfing world to offer congratulations after McIlroy successfully defended his Masters title, joining an elite group alongside Jack Nicklaus, Sir Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods as only the fourth player to retain the green jacket.Characteristically, the president incorporated a mention of his own Trump National Doral Blue Monster course into his congratulatory remarks.Yet McIlroy, now a six-time major champion, has signalled he intends to be highly selective about PGA Tour signature events, raising doubts over his participation.TRENDINGStoriesVideosYour SayThroughout 2025, the Northern Irishman opted to miss multiple signature events, explaining his decision stemmed from wanting greater quality time with his family whilst concentrating solely on golf's four major championships.McIlroy has adopted a measured approach to his schedule, aiming to prevent the exhaustion that comes from an overcrowded calendar.Before his Masters triumph, he sat out three consecutive tournaments the Valspar Championship, Texas Children's Houston Open and Valero Texas Open dedicating that period instead to intensive preparation at Augusta National.Speaking to The Guardian ahead of the Masters, McIlroy pointed to Justin Rose's career as inspiration for his approach."He is still competitive at 45," he said."I would like to think if I do the right things, pace myself and play the schedule that suits, not playing a ton of golf to stop me being burnt out every year, that I can get to that point as well."LATEST SPORTS NEWS:Rory McIlroy atones for Erica Stoll mistake after securing second Masters victoryJohn Terry spends millions on buying EFL club where his nephew playsScottie Scheffler makes complaint after Rory McIlroy makes history with Masters triumphThe 36-year-old added: "I don't want to say the tour stuff is 'less important'."But at the same time if I have 10 years left and I really want to prioritise the majors then the other tournaments are great to play in, you want to win them."It is just that every time I play in a PGA Tour event I have one eye on what I need to do for the next few weeks, leading into majors."The PGA Championship begins on 14th May, with several tournaments scheduled beforehand including the RBC Heritage Championship, the Cadillac Miami Championship and the Myrtle Beach Classic.McIlroy has not yet confirmed his participation in any of these events leading up to the second major of the year.The Northern Irishman lifted the Wanamaker Trophy twice previously, claiming victories in 2012 and 2014.However, his 2025 campaign at the championship proved disappointing, finishing tied for 47th place, some 14 shots adrift of winner Scottie Scheffler.Given his stated commitment to arriving fresh for major championships, and his recent decisions, Trump's hopes of seeing McIlroy at Doral may well go unfulfilled.Meanwhile, McIlroy was understandably jubilant after winning the Masters in front of his parents, wife Erica Stoll and their five-year-old daughter Poppy.Whether he can add more trophies to his growing haul, in the months and years that follow, remains to be seen.
