The midfield starlet built on the promising form shown during the 2011/12 season by upping his game even more and earning a well deserved transfer to Real Madrid in the process.

Helping lead Malaga to the quarter final stages of the Champions League at the first time of asking, his displays – particularly his brace against Russian giants Zenit St Petersburg on the opening day of the competition, had caught the eye and made sure he was at the forefront of everyone’s minds once they had finally crashed out.

However, still unable to break his way into the Spanish national set up for this summer’s Confederations Cup, he consoled himself with the big money move to the Capital city and a starring role in the Under-21s storming of their own tournament.

All eye will be on him this term as he looks to cement himself in the Real starting line up. He still has a long way to go, but the surroundings in Madrid will surely aide, rather than halt his fledgling career.
