Real Madrid seem to have identified their future great striker in the person of Jacobo Ortega, a young 18-year-old talent from their training center. Since the departure of Karim Benzema, who marked the club’s history for 13 years, the Merengues sought to fill this void in attack.
According to the Spanish newspaper A.S.Ortega could well be the one to embody this legacy. With his imposing physique (1.91 m, 82 kg) and his skill in front of goal, the young striker stands out for his versatility, capable of playing both up front and on the wings.
