Real Madrid have signed Jose Lopez Martinez, also known as, Chechu Martinez from Malaga, as per Marca. The 17-year-old can slot in at centre-back just as well as he can at left-back. Real Madrid will hope that they can benefit from his strength and versatility.

Chechu Martinez revealed the information on Instagram.

He said,

"As of today, I'm a part of the greatest club in the world, Real Madrid C.F.,

"It'll be a source of pride for me, and at the same time a huge challenge, to wear this shirt."

The under-17 international's signing will be Real Madrid's second in the same week after having completed a deal for Brahim Diaz earlier this week. Chechu's deal will also see Dani Sanchez returning to Malaga from Real Madrid.
