Iker Casillas sons leave Real Madrid academy for CD Leganés

Martin and Lucas Casillas, the sons of legendary goalkeeper Iker Casillas, are leaving the Real Madrid youth academy to continue their football training at CD Leganés.

According to reports from Matteo Moretto via MARCA, the decision was made by the boys and their family to seek a training project deemed more suitable for their development. Both boys follow in their father's footsteps as goalkeepers. Martin, aged 12, previously played for Real Madrid's Infantil B team and participated in a youth world championship in Brunei, while 10-year-old Lucas was part of the Alevín A squad.

Iker Casillas, who spent the majority of his professional career at Real Madrid before moving to FC Porto, will see his family temporarily depart from the 'La Fabrica' academy as the brothers transition to the second-division club's setup.
