Real Madrid Star Paulo Iago
A former Real Madrid star, Paulo Iago, has announced his departure from the club via social media. The midfielder, who was once likened to Madrid's Lamine Yamal, has decided to continue his career at Sporting CP in Lisbon.
In an emotional farewell video on Instagram, Paulo Iago expressed his disappointment at leaving the club at the age of 17 without realizing his dream of debuting with the first team at the Bernabeu. The decision to leave was reportedly influenced by a falling out with the U18s coach, Alvaro Arbeloa.
Paulo Iago, who had previously been considered a promising talent in Real Madrid's La Fabrica academy, found himself on the sidelines following a lackluster performance at the U17 World Cup with Spain in 2023. His move to Sporting CP in Portugal was motivated by the success of fellow Spaniards like Pedro Porro and Antonio Adan at the club.
Expressing his excitement about joining Sporting CP, Paulo Iago highlighted the club's history of producing top players such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Luis Figo. He emphasized the club's focus on training and developing young talent as a key factor in his decision.
Following his signing, Paulo Iago is expected to join Sporting's B reserve team with aspirations of breaking into the senior squad, which is the reigning league champion in Portugal.
Overall, Paulo Iago's departure from Real Madrid marks a new chapter in his career as he looks to make a name for himself at Sporting CP and follow in the footsteps of other successful Spanish players who have thrived at the club.
