Hi!!!! Today I'm going to talk about the person who I admire. I don't have to think a lot to know who is he. He is Iker Casillas. Do you know him? He is a Spanish football goalkeeper from Mostoles (Madrid) who has been playing for the Spanish team Real Madrid since 1999. He started playing football at the age of 16. In my opinion he is the best footbal goalkeeper in the world. And it isn't just my opinion. In 2008 he was named the world's best goalkeeper by the IFFHS. He also came in third place in the best goalkeepers of all time ranking.
Despite being famous, he behaves as a normal person. Besides, he doesn't take benefit from his fame for himself but for the people who need help. Recently he has been the image of an advertising campaign which had the aim of stopping the children's poverty. He also organized a football match with Rafa Nadal in order to collect money to eradicate the malaria in Sierra Leona.
Some of his most famous phrases are:
- I'm not galactic, I'm from Mostoles.
-I'm not Saint at all, I'm just Iker. - He said this because many reporters reffer to him as "Saint Iker". I think he is.
