In 725 games across 16 seasons in the first team, Iker Casillas is a legend in the history of Real Madrid. He arrived at the club in 1990 at just nine years of age and from the Under-10s he made his way up through the categories to becoming an emblem of madridismo and a leader in world football. At 34, having spent the last 25 years at Real Madrid, his CV is impressive. Since his debut with the first team on September 12 1999 in San Mamés, Casillas has won 19 titles: 3 Champions Leagues, 1 World Club Cup, 2 Intercontinental Cups, 2 European Supercups, 5 Ligas, 2 Copas del Rey and 4 Spanish Supercups. Historic Saves Forever in the memory of madridismo will be the images of the captain lifting these trophies but also his incredible saves. The ones that brought so many victories to Real Madrid. The save he made in the final of the ninth Champions League victory against Bayer Leverkusen is just one example. HIS CAREER BEGAN IN 1990 WITH THE UNDER-10S. His tally of 725 games is the second highest in Real Madrid history, surpassed only by Raúl. In the European Cup he played 152 times, establishing a record in the competition. Added to his success at Real Madrid, Casillas also made history with Spain. He is the most-capped international player (162) and the captain who lifted the World Cup and 2 European Championships. Individual Awards Included 5 times in the FIFPro World XI and chosen the best goalkeeper in the world 5 times by the IFFHS, his individual awards also include 1 Bravo Trophy and 1 Zamora Trophy. His stunning sporting career has been recognised with the Premio Príncipe de Asturias de los Deportes (Prince of Asturias Sporting Award) and the Medalla de Oro de la Real Orden del Mérito Deportivo (Gold Medal of the Royal Order of Sporting Merit) and a Medalla de Oro de la Comunidad de Madrid (Gold Medal of the Comunidad de Madrid). #HalaMadrid #SaintIker
