Fran García's presentation
'A player with a present and a future arrives and who, moreover, has the special status of being someone who has come through our youth academy,' said Florentino Pérez.
Fran García was unveiled as a new Real Madrid player. The event took place at Real Madrid City and started with the screening of a video featuring the player's best highlights. President Florentino Pérez then spoke: 'As time goes by, we must bring in young players who have already shown that they are the present and the future of our club, like we have been doing in the last few years. Today, in line with this strategic approach for Real Madrid, one of these young players arrives at our club, who, furthermore, has the special status of being someone who has come through our youth academy. We are very proud to have a home-grown player like you.
'As of today, we begin the journey together to a new season in which we will once again attempt to fulfil the dreams of millions of fans in every corner of the world. We have finished the season with three new trophies: the fifth European Super Cup, the eighth Club World Cup and the twentieth Copa del Rey, which we won last May in Sevilla. We're currently enjoying one of the best periods in our history, having won 5 Champions League titles in the last 9 years, among many other trophies'.
Talent and values
'Those of us madridistas who have watched you develop during all this time, are very proud that you are once again wearing our jersey. You have done this through your talent and the values that you have learnt at Real Madrid City and that will be with you forever. Values that have helped you to become the player that you are and that have also allowed you to grow as a person. The same principles that shape Real Madrid's destiny: hard work, sacrifice, humility, respect, solidarity and, above all, never giving up and fighting until the end'.
