Diego Javier Llorente Ríos (Spanish pronunciation: ['djeɣo ʎo'ɾente 'ri.os]; born 16 August 1993) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Real Madrid as a central defender.
Club career
Born in Madrid, Llorente joined Real Madrid's youth system in July 2002, one month shy of his ninth birthday. In the 2012–13 season he made his senior debuts, appearing with the C-team in a 1–1 away draw against Caudal Deportivo for the Segunda División B championship.[1]
On 24 March 2013, Llorente made his first appearance with Real Madrid Castilla, coming on as a substitute for injured Iván González in an eventual 4–0 home win over Córdoba CF.[2][3] On 11 May he was an unused bench player for the main squad, in a La Liga match at RCD Espanyol,[4] but finally made his debut in the competition on 1 June, replacing Álvaro Arbeloa for the dying minutes of the last game of the campaign, at home against CA Osasuna.[5]
On 14 July 2015, Llorente moved to neighbouring Rayo Vallecano in a season-long loan deal.[6] He scored his first goal in the top flight on 3 January 2016, netting the first in a 2–2 home draw against Real Sociedad,[7] and was an undisputed starter as his team eventually suffered relegation as third from bottom.
International career
In May 2016, Llorente was called up to the Spanish national team by manager Vicente del Bosque for a friendly against Bosnia and Herzegovina.[8] He made his debut late in the month, replacing Cesc Fàbregas in the 3–1 win in Switzerland.[9]
