MADRID, May 28 (Xinhua) -- Getafe has completed the permanent signing of midfielder Mario Martin from Real Madrid, with the 22-year-old agreeing a contract until June 2030.
Martin spent last season on loan at Getafe after previously playing for Real Valladolid, and became a key figure as the club from the south of Madrid climbed from relegation trouble to finish seventh in La Liga and qualify for next season's UEFA Conference League.
The hard-working midfielder made 35 league appearances last season, scoring twice and collecting 11 yellow cards in more than 2,200 minutes on the pitch.
Martin previously made 77 appearances for Real Madrid Castilla and also featured twice for Real Madrid's first team. He has represented Spain at both under-19 and under-21 level. ■
