Real Madrid and Benfica have reached an agreement for the transfer of Javier Balboa, who will be coached by Quique Sánchez Flores, with whom he worked on Real Madrid's Under-20 A side. The Club wishes the player all the best and thanks him for his hard work and exceptional behaviour.
Balboa joined the youth system in 1999, playing for Real Madrid C and Castilla, with whom he got promoted to the Second Division. He made his first team debut against Deportivo in Riazor Stadium in the 2005/06 campaign, after which he was loaned out to Racing for one year. He rejoined the first team for the 2007/08 campaign and won his first league title.
He played in a total of ten games last season in La Liga, Champions League and King's Cup, scoring two goals. He became an international for Equatorial Guinea in 2007.
Real Madrid wishes to thank the player for his work during all these years and wants all the best for him in this new venture.
