⚡️El Real Madrid ha acelerado en las últimas horas por Sergio Martínez (🥇 @Ramon_AlvarezMM) ➕Pese a la confianza, no está cerrado y hay más pretendientes ➕La idea principal es que empezara en el Castilla, aunque se va a estudiar que se quede cedido en el Racing de Santander si va a jugar con regularidad ➕Algún joven talento del RM podría ir al Racing, algo que de lo que ya se había hablado este verano @TheAthleticFC
