A few years later, when Spain won the 2012 European Championships, Casillas captained again with additional honours. Born in Mostoles, Spain in 1981, he started his football career in Real Madrid’s youth system (La Fabrica) in the 1990-91 season. At the age of 16, he was called up to the Champions League first team to face Rosenborg, but did not make his first-team debut until a year later. In 2000, when Real Madrid beat Valencia, he became the youngest goalkeeper ever to reach a Champions League final, just four days before his 19th birthday.

At the end of 2012, he was selected for the sixth consecutive UEFA Team of the Year. In 2011, Casillas was one of the select players to win all major club and national titles. Casillas is the third captain in football history to win the World Cup, European Cup and Champions League under his leadership. In January 2012, Casillas agreed to a sponsorship deal with Adidas, wearing their Response goalkeeper gloves and Predator football boots.
The move to Adidas ended Casillas’ long-standing relationship with Reebok, which began in 2004. Casillas has been dating model Sara Carbonero for a long time, and the couple have a son named Martin.
