Real Madrid has made a big move in the transfer market this week. After confirming the signing of French player Theo Hernandez from Atletico Madrid, the European champion has brought back one of the players with the greatest future projection in the Spanish national team: Jesus Vallejo.
In an official statement, Real Madrid confirmed the return of Jesus Vallejo, who was on loan at Eintracht Frankfurt in Germany. The new Real Madrid player also spent 2 seasons at Real Zaragoza and will be presented this Friday at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Jesus Vallejo joined Real Madrid in July 2015 but did not have the opportunity to debut with the first team, so he spent his first professional years at Real Zaragoza. After his successful spell at Eintracht Frankfurt, Zinedine Zidane requested the return of the 20-year-old defender to strengthen his squad.
Considered one of the players with the greatest projection in the Spanish national team, Jesus Vallejo comes from being the runner-up in the U21 European Championship and arrives with all the talent to be one of the key figures in Real Madrid's defense in the coming years.
